Metazoan parasites of Northwest Atlantic redfishes ( Sebastes spp.)
A total of 443 specimens of three redfish species (209 Sebastes fasciatus, 123 S. marinus, and 111 S. mentella), obtained from Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO) divisions 2H, 2J (Labrador area), 3K (Northeastern Newfoundland), 3L, 3O (Grand Banks) 3M (Flemish Cap), and 3Ps (St. Pierre...
