Seasonal population dynamics of Paraquimpevia tenevvima (Linstow) (Nematoda) in the European eel Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus) in three localities of southwest England
Seasonal population dynamics of Puraquzmperia tenerrima (Linstow) in the European eel Anguillu anguillu (Linnaeus) have been investigated in three localities in Devon, southwest England. The nematode is common and exhibits very similar seasonal patterns in changes of prevalence and abundance in the...
