  • Title: Experimental infection/transmission of sculpins (Myoxocephalus scorpius) and cod (Gadus morhua) by sealworm (Pseudoterranova decipiens) larvae.
    Author: Jensen T.
    Journal: Parasitol Res; 1997; 83(4):380-2. PubMed ID: 9134562.
    Abstract:
    Five serial transmission experiments with sealworm larvae were carried out. Pseudoterranova decipiens third-stage larvae (L3) were transferred via a stomach tube from sculpin to cod, from cod to sculpin, from sculpin to sculpin, and from cod to cod. After a minimum of 37 days the recipient fish were killed and the numbers of surviving P. decipiens larvae were recorded. P. decipiens transferred to sculpins showed the greatest rate of survival.
