Various evolutionary avenues of Nematoda to parasitism in Gastropoda
Soil Organisms, 2018 The various associations between nematodes and gastropods, which range from random transportation to endophoresis, necromeny, larval parasitism and an entire parasitic or parasitoidic life-style with and without intermediate or paratenic hosts, are ...

To grow or not to grow? Intermediate and paratenic hosts as helminth life cycle strategies [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2009 Larval helminths in intermediate hosts often stop growing long before their growth is limited by host resources, and do not grow at all in paratenic hosts. We develop our model [Ball, M.A., Parker, G.A., Chubb, J.C., 2008. The evolution of complex life cycles when parasite mortality is size- or time-dependent. J. Theor. Biol.

Possible Role of Fish and Frogs as Paratenic Hosts ofDracunculus medinensis, Chad [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016 Copepods infected with Dracunculus medinensis larvae collected from infected dogs in Chad were fed to 2 species of fish and tadpoles. Although they readily ingested copepods, neither species of fish, Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) nor fathead minnow (Pimephalis promelas), were found to harbor Dracunculus larvae when examined 2-3 weeks later ...

Nematode eel parasite found inside acanthocephalan cysts - a "Trojan horse" strategy?
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background The invasive eel parasite Anguillicoloides crassus (syn. Anguillicola crassus) is considered one of the major causes for the decline of the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) panmictic population. It impairs the swim bladder function and reduces
