| divergence between asian, european and canadian populations of the monogenean pseudodactylogyrus bini indicated by ribosomal dna patterns. | the monogenean pseudodactylogyrus bini parasitizes the gills of eels belonging to the genus anguilla. circumstantial evidence suggests that the parasite has been spread accidentally from the pacific area (east asia) to europe by the intercontinental eel trade. this is based on early descriptions of the parasites from asian regions and the lack of records of the parasites in europe before 1977. in addition, the susceptibility of european eels to infections with the parasite is significantly highe ... | 2010 | 20230654 |
| comparison of richness and diversity of macroparasite communities among eels from nova scotia, the united kingdom and australia. | species richness and diversity of macroparasite assemblages were compared among american eels (anguilla rostrata) from nova scotia, european eels (a. anguilla) from the united kingdom (kennedy, bush & aho, 1986; esch et al. 1988; kennedy, 1990, 1993), and australian eels (a. reinhardtii) from queensland (kennedy, 1995). community richness and diversity of the macroparasite fauna of american and european eels did not differ significantly for total parasite component communities, intestinal parasi ... | 1998 | 9481777 |
