The initial developmental stages of Contracaecum multipapillatum (von Drasche, 1882) Lucker, 1941 sensu lato were studied using eggs obtained from the uteri female nematodes (genetically identified) found in a brown pelican Pelecanus occidentalis Bahía de La Paz (Gulf California, Mexico). Optical microscopy revealed smooth or slightly rough surface to eggs. Egg dimensions approximately 53 × 43 µm, although after larvae had developed inside, egg size increased 66 55 µm. Hatching and survival...
Anisakidosis is a disease caused by the nematodes Anisakis simplex, Pseudoterranova decipiens (sensu lato), Contracaecum sp., and Hysterothylacium following larval consumption in raw or undercooked fish. The mullets Mugil curema cephalus along coast of La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico, have high prevalences mean intensities multipapillatum sensu lato L3 larvae, which could increase risk acquiring for people eating ceviche (raw fish marinated lemon juice) tacos. This study shows effects...
Abstract The Almaco jack ( Seriola rivoliana ) is a marine fish maintained in mariculture systems and frequently infested by monogenean parasites like Neobenedenia sp. Severe infestations can lead to high mortalities economic losses for farmers. This study evaluated the effects of temperature on immune response with We exposed fishes at temperatures 20°C, 24°C 30°C 20 days took samples different tissues beginning experiment, after 3 days. considered were skin, thymus, cephalic kidney, spleen...
