Fish host-monogenean parasite interactions, with special reference to Polyopisthocotylea Autori: Miguel Rubio-Godoy

“...There are two types of monogeneans, Monopisthocotylea and Polyopisthocotylea, which differ in their biology and effects on the host. Several reviews have summarised the information available on the interaction between fish hosts and monopisthocotylean monogenean parasites; this review focuses on case studies involving polyopisthocotyleans (species of the genera Discocotyle, Heterobothrium and Neoheterobothrium) known to cause pathology/mortality in wild and/or farmed fishes, for which laboratory-based studies on host-parasite interactions are available. ...”
