Fish as Paratenic Hosts of Serpinema trispinosum (Leidy, 1852) (Nematoda: Camallanidae)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1998
Third-stage larvae of the nematode Serpinema trispinosum (Leidy, 1852) were collected from the intestine of the freshwater cichlid, Cichlasoma urophthalmus (Günther), from a small lake in Yucatan, Mexico. This is the first record of Serpinema larvae from fishes, and their presence may reflect the importance of fishes as paratenic hosts of turtle ...

Prey species of franciscana Pontoporia blainvillei as paratenic hosts of helminths

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2017
The distribution of franciscana Pontoporia blainvillei Gervais & d'Orbigny, 1884, is restricted to the estuarine and coastal waters of the southwestern Atlantic. The diet of this dolphin is composed of fishes, squids, and shrimps, many of which harbor helminths that may infect franciscana.

Small mammals: paratenic hosts for species ofToxocarain eastern Slovakia

Journal of Helminthology, 2012
AbstractToxocaraspp., an aetiological agent of a serious helminthozoonosis, is a common roundworm of domestic and wild carnivores worldwide. The study aimed to estimate the seroprevalence ofToxocarain small mammals from different localities in eastern Slovakia.

Nucella lapillus as a paratenic host for Maritrema arenaria

Journal of Helminthology, 1999
Metacercariae of the microphallid trematode Maritrema arenaria are found in the shore barnacle Semibalanoides balanoides which is heavily predated by the dog whelk, Nucella lapillus. This study demonstrated that, under experimental and natural conditions, M. arenaria metacercarial cysts were ingested by N.

Transmammary Infection of Paratenic and Definitive Hosts with Alaria marcianae (Trematoda) Mesocercariae

The Journal of Parasitology, 1983
Transmammary infection with Alaria marcianae mesocercariae was demonstrated using mice as model, paratenic hosts. Prenatal transmission was ruled out because neonates removed immediately postpartum from infected dams were never infected. Mesocercarial distribution in virgin females and in females examined immediately postpartum showed no marked ...

Are fish paratenic natural hosts of the caiman haemoparasite Hepatozoon caimani?

Parasitology Research, 2013
The susceptibility of two fish and four mosquito species to the Caiman yacare haemoparasite Hepatozoon caimani was experimentally investigated. Mosquitoes belonging to four species (Aedes fluviatilis, Aedes albopictus, Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus) were blood-fed on two naturally infected C.

Structure of capsule surrounding acanthocephalans Corynosoma strumosum in paratenic hosts of three species

Parasitology Research, 2010
Morphology of capsules surrounding acanthocephalan Corynosoma strumosum in paratenic hosts (sea fishes of three species from the northern part of the Sea of Okhotsk) was studied. A thick layer of glycocalyx is formed on the surface of acanthocephalan's tegument in smelts Osmerus mordax dentex and Hypomesus olidus; the surrounding capsule is formed by ...

Anisakis Larvae in Intermediate and Paratenic Hosts in Japan

1990
In 1972, Oshima [1] published an excellent and comprehensive review, “Anisakis and anisakiasis in Japan and adjacent area”, based on widely scattered information in numerous Japanese publications. This is still one of the most important and useful reviews of the general biology of Anisakis and human anisakiasis in the world.
