Caligus elongatus (Copepoda: Caligoida) from Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) cultured in marine waters of the Lower Bay of Fundy
The occurrence of Caligus elongatus on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) cultured in marine waters in the Passamaquoddy Bay region of the lower Bay of Fundy is reported. Two size classes of cultured salmon (smolts and market size) were examined. Prevalence of C. elongatus was 54.5% on market fish and 54...
