Pomphorhynchus laevis (Zoega) Müller, 1776 (Acanthocephala) in Atlantic Salmon ( Salmo salar ) and Its Use as a Biological Tag
Pomphorhynchus laevis (Zoega) Müller, 1776, an acanthocephalan, occurred in 25.4% of 974 juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from 18 drainage systems in the British Isles and was absent in 1063 juvenile salmon from 36 systems in North America. Its incidence in Irish smolts was about 25 times that...
