An exhaustive literature search supplemented by a critical examination of records made it
possible to present an annotated checklist of tapeworms (Cestoda) that, as adults or larvae …

The use of parasites as biological tags to discriminate among marine fish stocks has
become a widely accepted method in fisheries management. Here, we first link this …

Many marine fisheries in South American Atlantic coasts (SAAC) are threatened by
overfishing and under serious risk of collapsing. The SAAC comprises a diversity of …

Identifying populations and establishing the connectivity between neighbouring stocks are

Whereas the effect of parasites on food webs is increasingly recognised and has been
extensively measured and modelled, the effect of food webs on the structure of parasite …

The relative role of host phylogeny and ecology on parasite community structure is analyzed
in three sympatric paralichthyids from Argentine waters: the carcinophagous Xystreurys …

Geographical distances between host populations are key determinants of how many
parasite species they share. In principle, decay in similarity should also occur with …
