Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first
discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological …

Host–parasite systems at high latitudes are promising model systems for detecting and
predicting the impact of accelerated environmental change. A major challenge is the lack of …

Abstract In 2018 and 2019, salmonid fishes, Salmo trutta L. and Salvelinus alpinus (L.) from
lakes in Iceland were assessed for trematodes during a parasitological examination …

The histopathology and ultrastructure of the intestine of mullets, Liza ramada and Liza
saliens, from Comacchio lagoons (northern Italy) naturally infected with myxozoans and …

The diphyllobothriid tapeworm Dibothriocephalus dendriticus, one of the causative agents of
the fish-borne zoonosis dibothriocephalosis, is mainly distributed in the Arctic/subarctic and …

Abstract Changes in abiotic and biotic factors between seasons in subarctic lake systems
are often profound, potentially affecting the community structure and population dynamics of …

Northern freshwater fish may be suitable for the genetic dissection of ecological traits
because they invaded new habitats after the last ice age (∼ 10.000 years ago). Arctic charr …

Ontogenetic dietary shifts are common in fish and often impact trophically transmitted
parasite communities. How parasite species composition and relative abundances change …

Females of the lernaeopodid copepod Salmincola edwardsii (Olsson, 1869) were found
parasitizing the gill area of southern Asian Dolly Varden, Salvelinus malma …

Parasite distribution patterns in lotic catchments are driven by the combined influences of
unidirectional water flow and the mobility of the most mobile host. However, the importance …
