Profilicollis chasmagnathi (Acanthocephala) parasitizing freshwater fishes: paratenicity and an exception to the phylogenetic conservatism of the genus?
(Springer, 2020-10)
Polymorphid acanthocephalans are parasites of marine mammals, waterfowl and ichthyophagous birds. Among these, the genus Profilicollis is known to use exclusively decapods as intermediate hosts. Here, we report the first ...
Pathology of enteric infections induced by the acanthocephalan Profilicollis chasmagnathi in Olrog's Gull, Larus atlanticus, from Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-12)
Acanthocephalans can be pathogenic helminths of marine birds. Every year during the breeding season, there is variable mortality among prefledged chicks from the largest known Olrog’s gull (Larus atlanticus) colony. ...
Life Cycle of the Parasite Profilicollis chasmagnathi (Acanthocephala) on the Patagonian Coast of Argentina Based on Morphological and Molecular Data
(American Society of Parasitologists, 2018-10)
This study verifies the identity of adult specimens of the parasite Profilicollis chasmagnathi (Acanthocephala, Polymorphidae) recovered from kelp gulls Larus dominicanus (Aves, Laridae), and cystacanths found in crabs ...
Morphological and molecular evidence on the existence of a single estuarine and rocky intertidal acanthocephalan species of Profilicollis Meyer, 1931 (Acanthocephala: Polymorphidae) along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of southern South America
(Springer, 2017-05)
Profilicollis chasmagnathi Holcman-Spector, Mañé-Garzón & Dei-Cas, 1977 (Acanthocephala: Polymorphidae) has been reported to parasitise different grapsid species as intermediate hosts along the South Atlantic shores, i.e. ...
Epidemiology of acanthocephalan infections in crabs from the Bahía Blanca Estuary, Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-12)
his study was conducted in two populations of crabs, Cyrtograpsus angulatus and Neohelice granulata from the Bahía Blanca Estuary, in Argentina, to identify risk factors for infection by the acanthocephalan Profilicollis ...
Spatial variability of larval parasites harboured by two crab species in an estuarine environment in Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-05)
Soft bottom intertidals of the Atlantic SW are dominated by the semi-terrestrial crab Neohelice granulata and the grapsid crab Cyrtograpsus angulatus. They are similar in size but C. angulatus is mainly a subtidal species, ...
Variaciones estacionales y ontogénicas de la comunidad de acantocéfalos en el róbalo eleginops maclovinus en la Bahía San Antonio y zonas de influencia
Los acantocéfalos son un grupo de parásitos intestinales con distribución cosmopolita. El ciclo de vida de estos parásitos es complejo, e incluyen crustáceos (anfípodos, isópodos o cangrejos) como hospedadores intermediarios ...
