| parasites and related pathological lesions in the gastrointestinal tract of a seal (phoka vitulina linnaeus). | an immature seal, about one-year-old, died a natural death. at autopsy, a large number of contracaecum osculatum and pseudoterranova decipiens, as well as some of anisakis simplex were found in the stomach together with numerous corynosoma strumosum in the small intestine and colon. histopathological examination revealed epithelial desquamation, congestion and hemorrhage in the mucosa. there were cellular infiltration and fibroplasia around the nematodes, collapsed nematodes and molted nematode ... | 1998 | 9795905 |
| natural transfer of helminths of marine origin to freshwater fishes with observations on the development of diphyllobothrium alascense. | infective stages of helminths of 5 species that occur as adults in marine mammals were found in burbot, lota lota (l.) (gadidae), from the lower kuskokwim river (southwestern alaska): diphyllobothrium alascense rausch et williamson, 1958; pyramicocephalus phocarum (fabricius, 1780); corynosoma strumosum (rudolphi, 1801); corynosoma semerme (forsell, 1904); and pseudoterranova decipiens (krabbe, 1878). some larval stages were obtained also from smelt, osmerus mordax dentex steindachner, an anadro ... | 2000 | 10780552 |
| the occurrence of corynosoma strumosum in the grey seal, halichoerus grypus, caught off the atlantic coast of ireland. | the occurrence, location and sex ratio of corynosoma strumosum (acanthoceophala: polymorphidae) from 26 juvenile grey seals, halichoerus grypus, by-caught from around the inishkea islands, co. mayo, from march to june 1997 were recorded. the location of c. strumosum within the seal did not vary, with all worms being found in the small intestine. the prevalence of infection was 100%, with no other acanthocephalan species being recorded. the mean abundance was 416 (range 80-846) c. strumosum per s ... | 2002 | 12363376 |
| structure of capsule surrounding acanthocephalans corynosoma strumosum in paratenic hosts of three species. | morphology of capsules surrounding acanthocephalan corynosoma strumosum in paratenic hosts (sea fishes of three species from the northern part of the sea of okhotsk) was studied. a thick layer of glycocalyx is formed on the surface of acanthocephalan's tegument in smelts osmerus mordax dentex and hypomesus olidus; the surrounding capsule is formed by fibroblasts and collagen fibers and do not include inflammatory cells. besides fibroblasts, capsule of the sole limanda aspera consists also of mac ... | 2010 | 20922420 |
| structure of capsule around acanthocephalan corynosoma strumosum from uncommon paratenic hosts-lizards of two species. | micromorphology and ultrastructure of capsule forming around acanthocephalan corynosoma strumosum in uncommon paratenic hosts-lizards lacerta agilis and lacerta viridis-have been studied. experimental infestation of the lizards by acanthocephalans obtained from naturally infested sea fishes showed that only small amount of parasites occurred in the intestine of the host was able to migrate into body cavity and to be encapsulated. micromorphology of capsules of different ages from different speci ... | 2011 | 21748352 |
| parasite fauna of the eel, anguilla anguilla (linnaeus, 1758), from the polish part of the vistula lagoon. | eel is one of the most valuable commercial fish species of the vistula lagoon. for this reason its infection by non-indigenous species of parasites is the subject of the interest of sciencists. | 2006 | 17120993 |
| corynosoma magdaleni in gray seals from the gulf of bothnia, with emended descriptions of corynosoma strumosum and corynosoma magdaleni. | because of the likelihood that corynosoma magdaleni montreuil, 1958. has been confused with c. strumosum (rudolphi, 1802) in reports of parasites from seals and to clarify its distribution in the baltic sea, acanthocephalans from 26 young gray seals from the southwestern finnish archipelago (western baltic sea) were examined. all harbored c. semerme (forssell. 1904). in addition to c. semerme, 12 had both c. strumosum and c. magdaleni, 3 had only c. strumosum, and 9 had only c. magdaleni. most a ... | 2002 | 12537117 |
