The ecological parameters of both species differed significantly between the islands. While individuals caught off La Palma showed a high degree of infection by the isopod, a single infected fish was found off Gran Canaria. Also, the myxozoans showed a high level of infection on fish from Gran Canaria but it was reported on only a single specimen from La Palma}, number={1}, journal={Scientia Marina}, author={Cuyás, Concepción and Castro, José Juan and Santana-Ortega, Ana Teresa and Carbonell, Enrique}, year={2004}, month={Mar.}, pages={159–163} }
