Eight major reviews are cited to indicate a recent knowledge explosion on the use of marine parasites as potential indicators of pollution. A literature update is given for the period 1995-2001. An analysis of the publications cited is used to provide 10 refined criteria for selecting parasites as indicator/monitor species. Previously unpublished data on Diclidophora merlangi and Dictyocotyle coeliaca confirm their value as potential indicators of hydrocarbon pollution in the North Sea. An extensive knowledge of D. merlangi is summarised to emphasize its potential value as an indicator species and also to encourage studies on the health status and immune responses of its host when subjected to pollutant stressors and infection with this monogenean. A discussion focuses on publications which have reported significant recent advances in this area of research and also on accompanying issues, problems and controversies. These selected publications are used to suggest species, stages in the development of species and assemblages of species worthy of further more detailed investigations into their value as indicators/monitors of pollution. It is predicted that further good progress will be made when contaminants can be accurately identified, their precise effects on both host and parasite can be measured by histochemical and biological methods and the roles of contaminants and parasites in causing disease can be assessed separately. About 100 references are cited.

“…This species was also recorded in the Arctic (samples from the Natural History Museum, London examined by Perdiguero-Alonso et al . [ 34 ]; see also [ 82 ]), which leads us to consider its distribution as Arctic-Boreal following the definitions of Hemmingsen & MacKenzie [ 2 ]. The hemiurid Hemiurus luehei Odhner, 1905 (not reported by Hemmingsen & MacKenzie [ 2 ]) actually belongs to the Boreal group (found in Irish and North seas in our study, see also [ 83 ]).…”

“…It is also possible that increased sampling effort has contributed to the high diversity of the parasite list reported here and this is supported by the seven new host records. Of these, only the gadoid specialist D. merlangi , which mainly parasitises whiting ( Merlangius merlangus (L.), see [ 82 ]) belongs to the Arctic-Boreal category. The newly recorded helminth species mainly belong to generalist genera with a wide geographical distribution whereas the copepod Chondracanthus ornatus is typical of calionomid perciforms [ 85 ].…”

Composition and structure of the parasite faunas of cod, Gadus morhua L. (Teleostei: Gadidae), in the North East Atlantic

et al. 2008

Background: Although numerous studies on parasites of the Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua L. have been conducted in the North Atlantic, comparative analyses on local cod parasite faunas are virtually lacking. The present study is based on examination of large samples of cod from six geographical areas of the North East Atlantic which yielded abundant baseline data on parasite distribution and abundance.

“…sp., the most abundant parasite in H. italicus, use crustaceans such as copepods or suprabenthic amphipods as first intermediate hosts (Gibson, 2002;Klimpel et al, 2010) which are both abundant in the diet of this fish. Surprisingly, only one ectoparasite, the monogenean Diclidophora sp., was found to be part of the parasite community of N. aequalis, and no ectoparasite were recovered in the other two host species; it is worth noting that two diclidophorid monogeneans (Macrouridophora nezumiae and Polycliphora nezumiae) have been described from N. aequalis in the Atlantic Ocean only (Lambert and Euzet, 1980;Rubec and Dronen, 1994).…”
