| Abstract |
The infection status of silver stage eels, Anguilla anguilla, infected with Anguillicola crassus from three locations, ranging from a lake to seawater, were investigated. Data show a significant difference in mean intensity of Anguillicola crassus in silver stage eels according to the salinity of the habitats. |
