Background Nematodes of the genus Anisakis parasitize many commercial fish species and
are responsible for a fish-borne zoonosis (anisakiasis) and allergic reactions. Anisakis can …

Sources of data other than those derived from conventional research protocols may
contribute valuable information to fill gaps in knowledge about cetacean occurrences and …

Dolphins of the genus Stenella occur in pelagic waters of both tropical and warm-temperate
oceans. Three species, the Atlantic spotted dolphin (Stenella frontalis), the pantropical …

Satellite telemetry and animal movement models advance our ability to remotely monitor the
