| parasitological study of a population of tiber river eels (anguilla anguilla). | a study was conducted on the parasitofauna of anguilla anguilla caught in the section of the tiber river south of rome (italy). the sample examined consisted of 417 specimens that were classified by stage (elver, young yellow eel, yellow eel and silver eel) and season of sampling. the following species were identified: trypanosoma granulosum, eimeria anguillae, myxidium giardi, sphaerospora reichenowi, myxobolus sp., trichodina anguilli, ichthyohodo sp., gyrodactylus anguillae, bothriocephalus c ... | 1987 | 3508508 |
| gyrodactylus anguillae (monogenea: gyrodactylidae) from anguillid eels (anguilla australis and anguilla reinhardtii) in australia: a native or an exotic? | a species of gyrodactylus collected from 2 species of anguillid eels (anguilla australis richardson, 1841 and anguilla reinhardtii steindachner, 1867) from australia is identified as gyrodactylus anguillae ergens, 1960. the morphology of sclerites of g. anguillae specimens from australia is in accordance with previous descriptions of specimens collected from a. anguilla (linnaeus, 1758) from europe and a. anguilla imported into japan. gyrodactylus anguillae was previously thought to be a parasit ... | 2000 | 11128500 |
| speciation and host-parasite relationships in the parasite genus gyrodactylus (monogenea, platyhelminthes) infecting gobies of the genus pomatoschistus (gobiidae, teleostei). | using species-level phylogenies, the speciation mode of gyrodactylus species infecting a single host genus was evaluated. eighteen gyrodactylus species were collected from gobies of the genus pomatoschistus and sympatric fish species across the distribution range of the hosts. the v4 region of the ssrrna and the internal transcribed spacers encompassing the 5.8s rrna gene were sequenced; by including published sequences a total of 30 species representing all subgenera were used in the data analy ... | 2003 | 14636683 |
| an infection of gyrodactylus anguillae ergens, 1960 (monogenea) associated with the mortality of glass eels (anguilla anguilla l.) on the north-western mediterranean sea board of spain. | the association of gyrodactylus anguillae ergens, 1960 with the glass eel stage of anguilla anguilla (l.) (total body length 61.4±4.9mm; range 55-70) is reported from the north-western mediterranean coast of spain for the first time. a sample of 12,600 glass eels, caught by professional fishermen operating in the mouth of the rivers fluvià, la muga and ter (north-east spain), was subject to mortalities of ∼1.75% of stock/day following transfer to a research facility. subsequent losses over a 31- ... | 2011 | 21482028 |
| gyrodactylus salinae n. sp. (platyhelminthes: monogenea) infecting the south european toothcarp aphanius fasciatus (valenciennes) (teleostei, cyprinodontidae) from a hypersaline environment in italy. | historically, non-native species of gambusia (poeciliidae) have been used to control larval stages of the asian tiger mosquito, stegomyia albopicta reinert, harbach et kitching, 2004 throughout italy. the potential utility of indigenous populations of aphanius fasciatus (valenciennes) (teleostei: cyprinodontidae) as an appropriate alternative biological control is currently being explored. a sub-sample of ten fish collected from cervia saline, italy (salinity 65 ppt; 30°c) to assess their reprod ... | 2011 | 21658217 |
