Carotenoids are diverse lipophilic natural pigments which are stored in variable amounts by animals. Given the multiple biological functions of carotenoids, such variation may have strong implications in evolutionary biology. Crustaceans such as Gammarus

Monitoring of invasions of family Percidae in the Volga-Caspian fishery basin
This paper presents long-term data on the occurrence of parasites of commercially valuable fish species, the common zander (Sander lucioperca (Linnaeus, 1758)) and the perch (Perca fluviatilis Linnaeus, 1758).

Background Neuropathological consequences of neuroinflammatory processes have been implicated in a wide range of diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Glial cells, the resident immune cells of the CNS, respond to tissue injury by releasing

Review on Major Parasitic Crustacean in Fish [PDF]
In this paper the major description, epidemiology, pathogenesis and clinical sign, diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitic crustaceans in fish has been reviewed. The major crustaceans parasites commonly encountered in cultured and wild fish are: copepods (ergasilidea and lernaeidae), branchiura (argulidae) and isopods).

Parasitic isopods perforate and attach to the host integument via the mandibles and then feed on hemolymph and exudate from the wounds. Such isopods attack a variety of commercially important fish and crustacean hosts.

Although the outcome of parasitic infections can be explained by a combination of environmental and host/parasite genetic factors, these factors are often confounded by geography. Thus, linking temperature, a locally variable environmental factor, with host and parasite genetics can reveal complex spatial host-parasite interactions.

While there is considerable interest in, and good evidence for, the role that parasites play in biological invasions, the potential parallel effects of species introduction on parasite dynamics have clearly received less attention.

Induced metamorphosis in crustacean y-larvae: Towards a solution to a 100-year-old riddle
Background The y-larva, a crustacean larval type first identified more than 100 years ago, has been found in marine plankton samples collected in the arctic, temperate and tropical regions of all oceans.
