The bi- and trivalved spores were observed in the gallbladder of T. ovatus. Mature bivalved spores of C. batam n. sp. were transversely elongated and narrowly crescent in shape, 3.8 ± 0.36 (2.7–4.6) μm long and 19.2 ± 1.75 (16.2–22.0) μm thick. Two sub-spherical polar capsules were 2.3 ± 0.18 (2.0–2.8) μmlong and 2.6 ± 0.16 (2.3–2.9) μm wide. Prevalence was 72.2% in 72 examined T. ovatus according to evaluations dating from November 2016. The maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on small subunit rDNA sequence showed similarity with Ceratomyxa robertsthomsoni and Ceratomyxa thalassomae found in Australia.

A diversity of myxozoans in filtered water samples and in faeces of piscivores (otters and great cormorants) was detected, demonstrating the suitability of lineage specific amplicons for characterising otherwise difficult to sample parasite communities. The importance of using the approach was highlighted by the lack of myxosporean detection using 30 commonly employed, broadly-targeted eukaryote primers. These results suggest that, despite being frequently present in eDNA samples, myxozoans have been generally overlooked in ‘eukaryote- wide’ surveys.

  • Lobster Diseases
    HELGOL~NDER MEERESUNTERSUCHUNGEN Helgol~inder Meeresunters. 37, 243-254 (1984) Lobster diseases J. E. Stewart Fisheries Research Branch, Department of Fisheries and Oceans; P.O.Box 550, Hallfax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3J 2S7 ABSTRACT: A number of diseases affecting lobsters (shell disease, fungal infections and a few selected parasitic occurrences} are described and have been discussed briefly. The bacterial disease, gaffkemia, is described in more detail and used insofar as possible to illustrate the interaction of a pathogen with a vulnerable crustacean host. Emphasis has been placed on the holistic approach stressing the capacity of lobsters and other crustaceans to cope with disease through flexible defense mechanisms, including on occasion the development of resistance. INTRODUCTION Although lobsters in their natural environments and in captivity are exposed to a wide range of microorganisms the list of diseases to which they are recorded as being subject is not lengthy. The list, however, will undoubtedly lengthen as studies on the lobsters continue and in particular as attempts to culture lobsters proceed. Lobsters in keeping with other large and long lived crustaceans appear to be reasonably equipped to deal with most infectious agents. They possess a continuous sheath of chitinous shell or membranous covering composed of several different layers more or less impervious to normal wear and tear. In addition, once this barrier is breached a battery of intrinsic defenses is available to confine or destroy disease agents. These include rapid formation of a firm non-retracting hemolymph clot, bactericidins, agglutinins, phagocytic capacity or encapsulation and melanization. All of these serve the lobsters well until the animals are faced with an infectious agent which through circumstance or unique capabilities is able to overcome these defenses.

In the present study, we observed that M. avidus not only escaped from the agglutinated mass but also conducted division(s) before shedding its old covering. Furthermore, ciliates that survived the antibody-dependent complement killing (ADCK) assay were not killed even when re-exposed to a freshly prepared ADCK assay. This result suggests that the liberated ciliates from the ADCK assay might change not only their i-antigen types but also the epitopes of major surface antigens, which debilitate antibody-mediated complement killing ability.

  • Enhanced Cellular Immunity in Shrimp (Litopenaeus Vannamei) After ‘Vaccination’
    Enhanced Cellular Immunity in Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) after ‘Vaccination’ Edward C. Pope1., Adam Powell1., Emily C. Roberts1, Robin J. Shields1, Robin Wardle2, Andrew F. Rowley1* 1 Centre for Sustainable Aquatic Research, Department of Biosciences, College of Science, Swansea University, Swansea, United Kingdom, 2 Intervet/Schering – Plough Animal Health (Aquaculture), Aquaculture Centre, Saffron Walden, United Kingdom Abstract It has long been viewed that invertebrates rely exclusively upon a wide variety of innate mechanisms for protection from disease and parasite invasion and lack any specific acquired immune mechanisms comparable to those of vertebrates. Recent findings, however, suggest certain invertebrates may be able to mount some form of specific immunity, termed ‘specific immune priming’, although the mechanism of this is not fully understood (see Textbox S1). In our initial experiments, either formalin-inactivated Vibrio harveyi or sterile saline were injected into the main body cavity (haemocoel) of juvenile shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). Haemocytes (blood cells) from V. harveyi-injected shrimp were collected 7 days later and incubated with a 1:1 mix of V. harveyi and an unrelated Gram positive bacterium, Bacillus subtilis. Haemocytes from ‘vaccinated’ shrimp showed elevated levels of phagocytosis of V. harveyi, but not B. subtilis, compared with those from saline-injected (non-immunised) animals. The increased phagocytic activity was characterised by a significant increase in the percentage of phagocytic cells. When shrimp were injected with B. subtilis rather than vibrio, there was no significant increase in the phagocytic activity of haemocytes from these animals in comparison to the non-immunised (saline injected) controls. Whole haemolymph (blood) from either ‘immunised’ or non-immunised’ shrimp was shown to display innate humoral antibacterial activity against V.

But lobsters also remain integral members of their benthic communities where predator−prey relationships, competitive interactions, and host−pathogen dynamics push and pull at their population dynamics. Although lobsters have few reported pathogens and parasites relative to other decapod crustaceans, the rise of diseases with consequences for lobster fisheries and aquaculture has spotlighted the importance of disease for lobster biology, population dynamics and ecology. Researchers, managers, and fishers thus increasingly recognize the need to understand lobster pathogens and parasites so they can be managed proactively and their impacts minimized where possible. At the 2011 International Con- ference and Workshop on Lobster Biology and Management a special session on lobster diseases was convened and this special issue of Diseases of Aquatic Organisms highlights those proceed- ings with a suite of articles focused on diseases discussed during that session.

J. Smith *, S. M. McVeagh , D. Hulston , S. A. Anderson , Y. Gublin 1National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA), Private Bag 14901, Wellington, New Zealand 2NIWA, Station Road, Ruakaka, Northland 0166, New Zealand ABSTRACT: Ciliates associated with fish mortalities in a New Zealand hatchery were identified by DNA sequencing of the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU rRNA). Tissue samples were taken from lesions and gill tissues on freshly dead juvenile groper, brain tissue from adult kingfish, and from ciliate cultures and rotifers derived from fish mortality events between January 2007 and March 2009. Different mortality events were characterized by either of 2 ciliate species, Uronema marinum and Miamiensis avidus. A third ciliate, Mesanophrys carcini, was identified in rotifers used as food for fish larvae. Sequencing part of the SSU rRNA provided a rapid tool for the identification and mon- itoring of scuticociliates in the hatchery and allowed the first identification of these species in farmed fish in New Zealand.

However, in stained tis- sue sections prepared for light microscopy, taxonomic features will be missing, thus making parasite identification difficult. This work highlights the characteristic features of representative parasites in tissue sections to aid identification. The parasite examples discussed are derived from species af- fecting finfish, and predominantly include parasites associated with disease or those commonly observed as incidental findings in disease diagnostic cases. Emphasis is on protozoan and small metazoan parasites (such as Myxosporidia) because these are the organisms most likely to be missed or mis-diagnosed during gross examination. Figures are presented in colour to assist biologists and veterinarians who are required to assess host/parasite interactions by light microscopy.
