A population of the gill parasite Hatschekia pagellibogneravei (Hesse, 1878) was studied on one of its sparid fish hosts, the blackspot seabream, Pagellus bogaraveo (Brünnich), off the coast of Madeira Island, Portugal, northeast Atlantic. Very high infection levels of this copepod were detected, with no significant seasonal differences. Abundance was negatively correlated with fish size. There were significant differences in the distribution of this copepod among the gill arches of the host, which seem to be best explained by differences in water flow within the gill habitat.
对鳃寄生虫哈氏派金虫(Hatschekia pagellibogneravei)(黑塞,1878年)在其一种鲷科鱼类宿主——葡萄牙东北大西洋马德拉岛海岸外的黑点鲷(Pagellus bogaraveo)(布吕尼希)上的种群进行了研究。检测到这种桡足类动物的感染水平非常高,且无明显季节性差异。其丰度与鱼的大小呈负相关。这种桡足类动物在宿主鳃弓中的分布存在显著差异,这似乎最好用水流在鳃栖息地内的差异来解释。
