Macroparasite community and asymmetry of the yellow eel Anguilla anguilla in Salses-Leucate lagoon, Southern France

European eel parasites, in particular invasive species, are suspected to have a strong influence on the population dynamics of their host. The aim of this work was to study the relationship between parasitic fauna of yellow eels caught at Salses-Leucate lagoon and the fluctuating asymmetry (FA) of s...
