Parasites of arctic grayling, Thymallus arcticus (Pallas), stocked into Michigan lakes
Grayling (Thymallus arcticus) stocked into seven lakes and one river in northern Michigan were examined for parasites in October and November 1987 and 1988. Grayling were 1 + year of age and were in the lakes for at least 140 days. Of 154 grayling examined, 66% were infected with at least one of the...
