Discrimination of fish populations using parasites: Random Forests on a ‘predictable’ host-parasite system

, 2010
SUMMARYWe address the effect of spatial scale and temporal variation on model generality when forming predictive models for fish assignment using a new data mining approach, Random Forests (RF), to variable biological markers (parasite community data ...

La dieta y la fauna de parásitos metazoos del torito Bovichthys chilensis Regan 1914 (Pisces: Bovichthydae) en la costa de Chile centro-sur: variaciones geográficas y ontogenéticas Diet and metazoan parasite fauna of the thornfish Bovichthys chilensis Regan 1914 (Pisces: Bovichthydae) on the coast of central-south Chile: geographical and ontogenetic variations

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2002
Conocer qué, cuánto, cuándo y dónde comen y viven los hospedadores permitiría complementar los estudios parasitarios, ya que la transmisión de los endoparásitos está estrechamente ligada a la dieta, y la de los ectoparásitos al uso del hábitat. Por esto,

Are cocoa plantations suitable habitats? Network between parasites (Diptera: Hippoboscidea) and hosts (Mammalia: Chiroptera) in cocoa-dominated landscapes of the Brazilian Amazon

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionThe relationship between ectoparasitic flies and bats is influenced by anthropogenic changes in natural environments. In the Amazon, various forms of disturbance contribute to ecosystem imbalance, potentially leading to the local extinction ...

Factors shaping the parasite communities of trout-perch, Percopsis omiscomaycus Walbaum (Osteichthyes : Percopsidae), and the importance of scale

, 2002
Trout-perch (Percopsis omiscomaycus Walbaum) provide a useful model in which to study fish-parasite communities because they have restricted trophic categories, they represent a single widely distributed taxon in North America, and numerous compound ...

Richness patterns in the parasite communities of exotic poeciliid fishes

, 2000
Three species of poeciliids (Gambusia holbrooki, Xiphophorus helleri and X. maculatus) and 15 species of ecologically similar native freshwater fishes (mainly eleotrids, ambassids, melanotaeniids and retropinnids) were examined for parasite richness to ...

The metazoan parasite infracommunities of flounders as indicators of environmental impact in the southern Gulf of Mexico: taxonomic and functional approaches

Abstract The performance of taxonomical and functional traits, together with functional diversity indices of metazoan parasites of flounders, as bioindicators of environmental impact, was evaluated along the continental shelf of the Southern Gulf of Mexico (SGoM). Metazoan parasites were collected from the flounders
