Comparative morphology of adult Lernaea polymorpha Yu and Lernaea cyprinacea Linnaeus.

The comparative morphology of Lernaea ctprinacea (Asian type) from Aristichtys nobilis and Carassius auratus and of L.polymorpha from A.nobilis was studied. The morphological variations of adult parasites from different regions of each host was also determined. Three forms of Lernaea were produced f...
