The biology, specificity and habitat of the species of Eubothrium (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea), with reference to their use as biological tags: a review
The literature pertaining to the distribution, habitat, specificity, life cycles and population biology of all the species of Eubothrium is reviewed. Records in which scolex morphology is used to identify species cannot be used as this character is too variable to be of value in specific recognition...

The literature pertaining to the distribution, habitat, specificity, life cycles and population biology of all the species of Eubothrium is reviewed. Records in which scolex morphology is used to identify species cannot be used as this character is too variable to be of value in specific recognition. Study of the valid records suggests that E. crassum comprises three races. There is a freshwater race, whose preferred host is non‐migratory Salmo trutta fario , but which also infects parr, smolts and landlocked adult S. salar and parr of migratory S. trutta trutta. Its distribution is confined to Europe and Eurasia and is co‐extensive with that of S. trutta: it does not occur in N. America or E. Asia.
