“…According to Palm (2004), C. gracilis has a trophically linked 4-host life cycle. In the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, larger fish species such as the bullet tuna Auxis rochei , the little tunny Euthynnus alletteratus , greater amberjack Seriola dumerili and the bluefin tuna act as hosts for the plerocerci of C. gracilis (Abdelsalam et al , 2016; Gabel et al , 2022; Morsy et al , 2022). High infection levels by this parasite have been reported in these hosts.…”

“…Research on the pufferfish was restricted and mostly focused on its habitat (Kalogirou et al 2012 ) and impacts on fish and fisheries (Kalogirou 2013 ), reproduction (Rousou et al 2014 ) and consumption safety issues (Deeds et al 2008 ; Katikou et al 2009 ). Four studies were conducted on pufferfish parasitism from the Suez Canal and Mediterranean Sea with no record of isopod infestation (El-Lamie and Abdel-Mawla 2012 ; Ozak et al 2012 ; Bakopoulos et al 2017 ; Gabel et al 2022 ). As data concerning parasitic isopod on pufferfishes is scarce in the eastern Mediterranean, the objective of this study was to identify the parasitic isopod of migrant L. sceleratus and estimate its role in transmitting parasitic isopod species to the invaded Egyptian Mediterranean sea coast.…”
