Argulus foliaceus. Argulus foliaceus, also known as the common fish louse, is a species of fish lice in the family Argulidae. [1] It is "the most common and widespread native argulid in the Palaearctic" [2] and "one of the most widespread crustacean ectoparasites of freshwater fish in the world", considering its distribution and range of hosts.

The life cycle of Dactylogyrus species is direct, having no intermediate host. The hermaphroditic adults are oviparous and produce eggs into the water which hatch prior to attaching to the gills of a fish host and developing into an oncomiracidium. [7] Adult Dactylogyrus lay about 4-10 eggs per day. [8]
Some fish are hermaphrodites, having both testes and ovaries either at different phases in their life cycle or, as in hamlets, have them simultaneously. Over 97% of all known fish are oviparous, [74] that is, the eggs develop outside the mother's body. Examples of oviparous fish include salmon, goldfish, cichlids, tuna, and eels.
Simplified scheme of the life cycle of the fish parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis The life cycle of the parasite is direct, which means that no intermediate hosts are included in transmission. It includes a trophont stage residing in the fish surface (gill epithelia, skin and fin epidermis).
Much of the European eel's life history was a mystery for centuries, as fishermen never caught anything they could identify as a young eel. Unlike many other migrating fish, eels begin their life cycle in the ocean and spend most of their lives in fresh inland water, or brackish coastal water, returning to the ocean to spawn and then die.
Specifically, the study examined the edible tissue of fish often fished along the Oregon coast or sold in the state's markets: black rockfish, lingcod, Chinook salmon, Pacific herring, Pacific ...
The first avermectin used was ivermectin at doses close to the therapeutic level and was not submitted for legal approval for use on fish by its manufacturer. Ivermectin was toxic to some fish, causing sedation and central nervous system depression due to the drug's ability to cross the blood–brain barrier .
