| observations on the seasonal occurrence of two species of transversotrematid digenea parasitising the sparid fish acanthopagrus australis in moreton bay, eastern australia. | ectoparasitic prototransversotrema steeri angel infected acanthopagrus australis (günther) in western (w. bay) and southern (s. bay) moreton bay with greatest abundance in winter (june-august), and none in summer (december-february). this confirms previous observations on seasonality of p. steeri from a small estuary in new south wales. transversotrema licinum manter, which is a new host and geographical record, infects a. australis in w. bay but not s. bay, with large abundances in summer and w ... | 1998 | 9805784 |
| assessment of metals in fish from lake macquarie, new south wales, australia. | the concentrations of the metals cadmium, copper, mercury, lead, silver, selenium and zinc were measured in the muscle and gonad tissues of five species of fish, yellowfin bream (acanthopagrus australis), silverbiddy (gerres subfasciatus) and trumpeter whiting (sillago maculata), southern log finned goby (favonigobious lateralis), and the halfbridled goby (arenigobius frenatus) from the contaminated lake macquarie nsw and three relatively uncontaminated reference estuaries, wallis lake, port ste ... | 2008 | 17768590 |
| two new hemiurine species (digenea: hemiuridae) from spratelloides robustus ogilby (clupeiformes: clupeidae) off south-western australia and records of parahemiurus merus (linton, 1910) from australian and new caledonian waters. | two new species of hemiurine hemiurid are described from spratelloides robustus off woodman point in southern western australia. hemiurus lignator n. sp. differs from its congeners by a combination of similar-sized suckers, long sinus-sac, tandem testes, relatively elongate shape and unthickened seminal vesicle wall. parahemiurus xylokopos n. sp. differs from its congeners in a combination of its squat form, its distinctly lobed vitellarium and the proximity of the gonads to the ventral sucker. ... | 2005 | 15864457 |
