Parasitofauna branquial de Dentex dentex (Linneo, 1758) (Pisces: Sparidae).
Se ha llevado a cabo un estudio sobre el parasitismo branquial de 91 dentones (Dentex dentex, Pisces, Sparidae). Dicha muestra se compuso de 61 dentones salvajes capturados mediante palangre procedentes de aguas de Mallorca y canal de Menorca, y 30 dentones cautivos procedentes de una jaula situada en el puerto de Mallorca. Se encontraron un total de ocho especies parásitas, un dinoflagélido (Amyllodinium ocellatum), un monogénido (Microcotyle erythrini), un udonélido (Udonella caligorum), un trematodo digenea (Stephanostomum sp. metacercariae), tres copépodos (Caligus productus, Caligus diaphanus y Clavellotis fallax) y un isópodo (Gnathia vorax, praniza larvae).

Coprology of Panthera tigris altaica and Felis bengalensis euptilurus from the Russian Far East
Fecal samples from the Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) and the Amur cat (Felis bengalensis euptilurus) from Far Eastern Russia, were examined for parasites. A natural sedimentation methodology was used and a complete examination of all the sediment was performed. This fecal investigation allowed us to isolate and identify several developmental stages of gastrointestinal, hepatic, and respiratory parasites. Five parasites were found from P. t. altaica: 11 trematodes (Platynosomum fastosum) and 4 nematodes (Strongyloides sp., Ancylostomatidae, Toxascaris leonina, and Toxocara cati). Five parasites were found from F. b. euptilurus: 1 cestode (Diplopylidium sp.) and 4 nematodes (Trichu…
