Intertidal fishes have received a great deal of attention in last decades serving as a sound
study model in marine ecology. They occupy habitats that are readily subject to human …

Parasites with complex life-cycles and trophic transmission are expected to show low
specificity towards final hosts. However, testing this hypothesis may be hampered by low …

Purpose The intertidal and supratidal coastal zone challenges the osmoregulatory capacity
of aquatic inhabitants. Four new species of Gyrodactylus ectoparasites on two intertidal …

Intersexuality is a reproductive phenomenon that occurs in some gonochoric species and
refers to the simultaneous presence of both male and female gametes within the same …

We describe the life cycle of the bucephalid Prosorhynchoides carvajali from the intertidal
rocky zone of central Chile. To elucidate the life cycle of this digenean, two mytilid bivalves …

Monthly variation in parasite populations and communities, from the blenniid fish
Scartichthys viridis, were assessed during two consecutive years in order to examine …

Understanding factors that shape host selection has been a classic issue in ecology,
evolutionary biology, and epidemiological investigation. During the survey from 2000 to …

The bivalve Perumytilus purpuratus is a common species that is widely distributed
throughout rocky intertidal zones in Chile. This bivalve is the first intermediate host for three …

Variations in parasite populations may be temporal and/or spatial and can occur in relation
to environmental factors. However, such changes may also occur due to differences in host …
