Description

Explore the complex world of aquatic biology with Leeches, Lice and Lampreys: A Natural History of Skin and Gill Parasites of Fishes. Published by Springer, this volume provides a detailed look at the diverse animals that have adopted parasitic lifestyles on marine and freshwater fishes. From protozoans and flatworms to crustaceans and vertebrates like lampreys, this book covers a wide range of organisms. You will learn about unique biological traits, such as the parasitic barnacle described by Charles Darwin, fish lice that undergo sex changes, and bivalve molluscs that are only parasitic during their youth. This text examines closely interwoven themes for each group of parasites, offering a comprehensive study of these little known and often bizarre creatures. It is an essential resource for those interested in the natural history of fish parasites and the specialized biology of aquatic life.
