RECOVERY OF THIRD-STAGE LARVAE OF ANGUILLICOLA CRASSUS (NEMATODA : DRACUNCULOIDEA) FROM THE FLESH OF FISHES : ASSESSMENT OF A DIGESTIVE MEDIUM AS A TOOL FOR THE STUDY OF FISH PARATENIC HOSTS. EXTRACTION DE LARVES DE TROISIÈME STADE D'ANGUILLICOLA CRASSUS (NEMATODA : DRACUNCULOIDEA) DANS LA CHAIR DE POISSONS : MISE AU POINT D'UNE MÉTHODE PAR DIGESTION POUR L'ÉTUDE DU PORTAGE PARASITAIRE PAR LES POISSONS HÔTES PARATÉNIQUES.

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2008
The purpose of this study was to recover third-stage larvae (L3) of Anguillicola crassus alive from the flesh of fishes. Different digestive media have been tested on eel flesh for their efficiency and on living infective third-stage larvae for their ...

Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

The Trw Type IV Secretion System of Bartonella Mediates Host-Specific Adhesion to Erythrocytes [PDF]

, 2010
Bacterial pathogens typically infect only a limited range of hosts; however, the genetic mechanisms governing host-specificity are poorly understood.

Rodent population cycle as a determinant of gastrointestinal nematode abundance in a low-arctic population of the red fox

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019
We analyzed an 11-year time series (2005–2015) of parasite abundance for three intestinal nematode species in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) as a function of the multi-annual rodent population cycle in low-arctic Norway, while correcting for other potential

The Battle of Helminths Deep: Molecular Insights Into Oegopsid Squid Parasites in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cephalopods play crucial roles in marine ecosystems due to their diverse and indispensable contributions to trophic webs. However, parasitological research on cephalopods remains limited in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), despite the commercial significance of certain squid species and the zoonotic potential of the parasites within them. This study aimed to

The role of paratenic hosts in the life cycles of helminths [PDF]

, 2008
Paratenic hosts, especially of nematodes, play a major role in spreading many parasite species. The phenomenon of „paratenic parasitism” is illustrated by examples of development of Syngamus trachea and Proteocephalus longicollis.

Advances and Trends in the Molecular Systematics of Anisakid Nematodes, with Implications for their Evolutionary Ecology and Host-Parasites Co-evolutionary Processes

, 2008
The application of molecular systematics to the anisakid nematodes of the genera Anisakis, Pseudoterranova and Contracaecum, parasites of aquatic organisms, over the last two decades, has advanced the understanding of their systematics, taxonomy, ecology

Pterygodermatites (Mesopectines) whartoni (Nematoda: Rictulariidae) encysted larvae in invasive Cuban treefrogs (Osteopilus septentrionalis) from Florida, United States

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Species of Pterygodermatites are spirurid nematodes that have expanded their geographic distribution worldwide. They infect a variety of mammalian definitive hosts with few reports of potential paratenic infections in amphibian and reptile hosts. In this

Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Captive Snakes, Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study documented gastrointestinal parasitic infections in captive venomous and non‐venomous snakes in Bangladesh for the first time, finding an overall prevalence of 39.1%, with helminths more common than protozoa. Non‐venomous snakes and juveniles were most susceptible, while controlled terrarium housing reduced risk, highlighting the need for ...

Resolving the infection process reveals striking differences in the contribution of environment, genetics and phylogeny to host-parasite interactions [PDF]

, 2011
Background Infection processes consist of a sequence of steps, each critical for the interaction between host and parasite. Studies of host-parasite interactions rarely take into account the fact that different steps might be influenced by different ...
