Anisakis and anisakiasis
John W. Smith,R. Wootten +1 more
TL;DR: While euphausiids appear to be important crustacean hosts of Anisakis at least in offshore areas, further is required to show other crustaceans to be significant, possibly in inshore waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisakis simplex (Rudolphi, 1809, det. Krabbe, 1878) (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea): morphology and morphometry of larvae from euphausiids and fish, and a review of the life-history and ecology.
TL;DR: It is concluded that euphausiids in the North-East Atlantic and northern North Sea, and perhaps universally, are major intermediate hosts of A simplex and the status as hosts of squid and teleosts harbouring L3 is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Larval Anisakis simplex (Rudolphi, 1809, det. Krabbe, 1878) and larval Hysterothylacium sp. (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea) in euphausiids (Crustacea: Malacostraca) in the North-East Atlantic and northern North Sea
TL;DR: Over 26000 specimens representing five euphausiid species collected, mostly in 1969, in the North-East Atlantic and northern North Sea were examined for parasites, finding infection with larval Anisakis simplex was virtually restricted to Thysanoessa spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisakis simplex (Rudolphi, 1809, det. Krabbe, 1878): length distribution and viability of L3 of known minimum age from herring Clupea harengus L
TL;DR: Third-stage larvae (L3) of Anisakis simplex of a known minimum age of 60 to 61 weeks, the oldest of which may have spent at least three years in herring, were artificially excapsulated in saline and appeared healthy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental transfer of Anisakis sp. larvae (Nematoda: Ascaridida) from one fish host to another.
TL;DR: Most larvae from Anisakis larvae were recovered from the body-cavity but, in haddock, two had penetrated the epaxial musculature and the wall of the stomach or of a pyloric caecum.
