Lernaea cyprinacea (Crustacea: Copepoda) in the Iberian Peninsula: climate implications on host–parasite interactions

Abstract: -The non-native parasitic anchor worm (Lernaea cyprinacea) may induce anaemia, malformations, reduced growth and increased susceptibility to secondary infection to its hosts. The objectives of this study were to (i) compile a list of the host species of L. cyprinacea in the Iberian Peninsula and (ii) assess if climate may impact on infestation levels of the parasite. There were two primary sources for data collection: (i) fish sampling in the Tormes Basin (Ávila, central Spain) during August 2010 and 2016 and … Show more

“…S1). This ectoparasite, however, has been found on many freshwater species of several fish families (Amin, 1981;Koyun et al, 2015, Sánchez-Hernández, 2017Waicheim et al, 2017) but only rarely on gobioid species (Tab. S1).…”

“…Investigations regarding the prevalence of specific pathogens are limited and often do not focus on the impact these agents might have for the host. Also, past studies have focused on parasitological and fungal surveys [11,12], neglecting the influence that other pathogenic agents-i.e., bacteria and virus-might have in leuciscids.…”

“…as seen during 2021, when 1 individual supported 21 of these parasites, the likelihood of adverse effects increases. Several studies indicate that infestation of Lernaea increase with increased temperatures, with ideal transmission occurring from 23 to 30 °C (Marcogliese, 1991;Sánchez-Hernández, 2017).…”
