Host-parasite interactions between the cysticercoid larvae of the cestode Microsomacanthus hopkinsi and the amphipod intermediate host Hyalella azteca
This study examined host-parasite relations between cysticercoids of Microsomacanthus hopkinsi and the amphipod intermediate host Hyalella azteca throughout the latter's life history. There was a significant positive relationship in oncosphere consumption, parasite loads, and short-term surviva...
