The dynamics of infection of Diphyllobothrium dendriticum (Nitzsch) and D. ditremum (Creplin) in the char Salvelinus alpinus (L.) in Sweden
A total of 654 char, Salvelinus alpinus (L.), from Lake Bjellojaure, Sweden, were examined for plerocercoids of Diphyllobothrium dendriticum (Nitzsch, 1824) and D. ditremum (Creplin, 1825) from September 1969 to December 1974. Plankton samples showed that the dominating copepod species in the lake w...
