Abstract The results of comparative immunohisto‐chemical staining studies with two lectin probes, GS‐I and SBA, and five monoclonal antibodies raised against the PKX myxosporean are presented. In order to investigate the postulated link between PKX and Sphaerospora spp., the lectins and monoclonal a...
