First report of the parasite crustacean Leidya distorta (Isopoda: Bopyridae) on the fiddler crab Uca spinicarpa (Decapoda: Brachyura) in Yucatán coasts, Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2017
Parasitic isopods, particularly members of the Bopyridae that infest crustacean hosts, have received scant study in many geographic regions. As part of a project aimed at documenting parasites of fish and invertebrates from the coast of Yucatán, Mexico ...

Influence of salinity on survival, growth, hemolymph osmolality, gill sodium potassium ATPase activity, and sodium potassium chloride co‐transporter expression in the redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2021
The Australian redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus is a freshwater crustacean aquacultured in many countries. Redclaw crayfish are often exposed to saline waters in attempts to improve flavor, to relieve stress during transport, and to prevent or ...

Infection of Cypriniform Fishes with Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) in a Low-elevation Stream, Central Japan

Species Diversity
Recent studies have reported that salmonids and ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846), both of which are salmoniform fishes, serve as important hosts for Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864. These studies found the parasite in the

Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) Parasitic on a Freshwater Minnow Opsariichthys platypus (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae) in a Low-Elevation Stream in Kyushu, Western Japan

Species Diversity
An adult female of Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864 was collected from the operculum of a freshwater minnow Opsariichthys platypus (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846) (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae) at 15 m elevation in a stream in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu ...

Parasites shape community structure and dynamics in freshwater crustaceans

Parasitology, 2019
AbstractParasites directly and indirectly influence the important interactions among hosts such as competition and predation through modifications of behaviour, reproduction and survival. Such impacts can affect local biodiversity, relative abundance of host species and structuring of communities and ecosystems.
