Mortality in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Associated with Trichodinid Ciliates [PDF]
A protozoan infection (Trichodina truttae) was identified in captive Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) kelts that died in spring of 1988 and 1989. Fish with intense infections showed signs of listlessness, erratic swimming and inappetence. The infection induced excessive mucus secretion, epithelial sloughing and lesions that probably permitted entry of ...

Description of a new actinosporean type from South African freshwater [PDF]
The 1st report on actinospores described these organisms as parasites related to myxosporeans. For a long time this group of parasites was believed to represent an independent taxonomic entity.

HISTOLOGICAL CHANGES ASSOCIATED WITH TRICHODINID INFECTIONS IN THORNY SKATES, Raja radiata DONOVAN [PDF]
Histological changes in the wall of the copulatory sac of normal adult female thorny skates, Raja radiata, were compared with those naturally infected with Trichodina oviducti. The parasites were associated with extensive defoliation of the copulatory epithelium and in some instances had penetrated the submucosa resulting in petechiae.
