occurrence of hysterothylacium and anisakis nematodes (ascaridida: ascaridoidea) in the tanaka's snailfish liparis tanakae (gilbert & burke) (scorpaeniformes: liparidae). | the tanaka's snailfish liparis tanakae (gilbert & burke) (scorpaeniformes: liparidae) is an economically important marine fish species in china. however, the helminth parasites of this fish are still poorly known. during a helminthological survey of chinese marine fishes from 2011 to 2012, we revealed that l. tanakae was heavily infected with third-stage larvae and adults of ascaridoid nematodes (total prevalence 100% and mean intensity 82.3 nematodes per fish). four species of third-stage larva ... | 2014 | 24464274 |
ascaridoid parasites infecting in the frequently consumed marine fishes in the coastal area of china: a preliminary investigation. | marine fishes represent the important components of the diet in the coastal areas of china and they are also natural hosts of various parasites. however, to date, little is known about the occurrence of ascaridoid parasites in the frequently consumed marine fishes in china. in order to determine the presence of ascaridoid parasites in the frequently consumed marine fishes in the coastal town huizhou, guangdong province, china, 211 fish representing 45 species caught from the south china sea (off ... | 2016 | 26546570 |
morphological and genetic characterization of hysterothylacium zhoushanensis sp. nov. (ascaridida: anisakidae) from the flatfish pseudorhombus oligodon (bleeker) (pleuronectiformes: paralichthyidae) in the east china sea. | hysterothylacium zhoushanensis sp. nov. collected from the intestine of the flatfish pseudorhombus oligodon (bleeker) (pleuronectiformes: paralichthyidae) in the east china sea is described and illustrated by light and scanning electron microscopy. the new species can be easily distinguished from its congeners by the presence of remarkable lateral alae, the very short intestinal caecum, the unusually long ventricular appendix (ratio of intestinal caecum to ventricular appendix 1:8.74-23.8), the ... | 2012 | 22955500 |
