The Succession of Generations and Growth of the Caligid Copepods Caligus Elongatus and Lepeophtheirus Salmonis Parasitising Farmed Atlantic Salmon Smolts ( Salmo Salar L.)
Infestation of cage cultured Atlantic salmon by the external parasitic copepods Caligus elongatus (Nordmann) and Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Kröyer) is a serious cause of loss of production in the commercial sea water culture of this species. The copepods feed on the mucus, skin and blood of their host...
