Parasite Diversity in a Freshwater Ecosystem
Parasites are a significant component of biodiversity. They negatively affect fish appearance, growth, and reproduction. In this study, the prevalence of infection, diversity, and mean intensity of parasites were examined in 9 freshwater fish species (45

Evidence for cryptic speciation in directly transmitted Gyrodactylid parasites of Trinidadian guppies [PDF]
Cryptic species complexes are common among parasites, which tend to have large populations and are subject to rapid evolution. Such complexes may arise through host-parasite co-evolution and/or host switching.

Therapeutic bath of mint hydrolate in the control of monogenea for four tilapia species
This work aimed to evaluate a therapeutic bath of mint (Mentha x villosa) hydrolate in the control of monogeneans for four tilapia species (Oreochromis niloticus, Oreochromis aureus, Oreochromis mossambicus, and Oreochromis hornorum) reared in the same ...

Does the anaesthetic influence behavioural transmission of the monogenean Gyrodactylus gasterostei Glaser, 1974 off the host? [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the use of the anaesthetic 2-phenoxyethanol on the transmission factors of gyrodactylid and to ascertain how this may affect in the colonisation of new hosts using the Gyrodactylus gasterostei Glaser, 1974 ...

The Monogenean Which Lost Its Clamps
Ectoparasites face a daily challenge: to remain attached to their hosts. Polyopisthocotylean monogeneans usually attach to the surface of fish gills using highly specialized structures, the sclerotized clamps. In the original description of the protomicrocotylid species Lethacotyle fijiensis, described 60 years ago, the clamps were considered to be ...
