Metazoan parasites of freshwater cyprinid fish ( Leuciscus cephalus): testing biogeographical hypotheses of species diversity.

Parasitology - 1 Oct 2008

Seifertová M, Vyskocilová M, Morand S, Simková A

Abstract excerpt

The diversity and similarity of parasite communities is a result of many determinants widely considered in parasite ecology. In this study, the metazoan parasite communities of 15 chub populations (Leuciscus cephalus) were sampled across a wide geographical range. Three hypotheses of biogeographical gradients in species diversity were tested: (1) latitudinal gradient, (2) a 'favourable centre' versus 'local...
