Ontogenetic asynchrony in fish migrations may lead to disparate parasite assemblages: Implications for its use as biological tags
(Elsevier Science, 2021-07)
Several species of marine fishes perform seasonal migrations alternating foraging and spawning habitats during their life cycles. The knowledge of these movements is essential to define their population structure which is, ...
Parasite assemblages as indicators of an incipient speciation process of Odontesthes argentinensis in an estuarine environment
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-03)
The silverside Odontesthes argentinensis is commonly reported as a euryhaline species, capable of using estuaries as nurseries and/or feeding grounds. However, in Mar Chiquita Coastal Lagoon system (MCH), northern Argentine ...
Homogeneity of parasite assemblages of Dules auriga (Serranidae) in hydrographically heterogeneous sites
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-04)
Parasite assemblages of Dules auriga are described for the first time from samples caught during research cruises in two localities of the Argentine-Uruguayan Common Fishing Zone (AUCFZ) and are compared with four additional ...
Parasites of the Brazilian flathead Percophis brasiliensis reflect West Atlantic biogeographic regions
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-02)
With the aim of evaluating the utility of marine parasites as indicators of zoogeographical regions in the South West Atlantic, we analyzed data on assemblages of long-lived larval parasites of 488 specimens of Percophis ...
Ecotonal marine regions – ecotonal parasite communities: helminth assemblages in the convergence of masses of water in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean
(Elsevier, 2016-11)
With the aim of evaluating the utility of marine parasites as indicators of ecotonal regions in the marine environment, we analysed data on assemblages of long-lived larval parasites of Zenopsis conchifer inhabiting the ...
Parasitic assemblages on leafminers: a comparison of structure and function among host Orders
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011-04)
In this study we ask whether parasitic complexes of leafminers display differences associated to host order, by comparing species number, taxonomic composition, parasitism rates and host ranges in parasitoid assemblages ...
Parasite communities in three sympatric flounder species (Pleuronectiformes: Paralichthyidae): Similar ecological filters driving toward repeatable assemblages
(Springer, 2012-06)
The relative role of host phylogeny and ecology on parasite community structure is analyzed in three sympatric paralichthyids from Argentine waters: the carcinophagous Xystreurys rasile and the piscivorous Paralichthys ...
