Abstract: | Of infested M. amazonicum collected in the Lower Tocantins, Para, Brazil, 99.6% carried a single parasite couple in either the right or in the left branchial cavity. The infestation level in the female host population varied between 1.6-7.3% in Cameta and 6.4-54.5% upstream in Acaripucu, affecting respectively 4% and 11% of the total prawn population. Length of the female isopod was positively correlated with the length of its host. -from English summary |
