Spraguea lophii (Microsporidia) parasitizing in black anglerfish (Lophius budegassa) in European Atlantic waters
An important commercial species in the European fisheries, the black anglerfish (Lophius budegassa), is infected by the microsporidian parasite Spraguea lophii, which is manifested as cysts located in the nerve ganglia. Fish length and presence or absence of the parasite was recorded. The prevalence...
