Microscopic visualization of the body organisation in diplozoids
Original language description
Diplozoidae represent blood-feeding gill ectoparasites of freshwater fish. They exhibit extraordinary morphology and life cycle involving permanent fusion of two larval worms and their subsequent transformation into one individual (permanent copula). Different developmental stages including diporpa, juvenile and adult of 3 species Paradiplozoon homoion, Paradiplozoon blicae and Eudiplozoon nipponicum were investigated for the body organisation and its adaptation to the ectoparasitic life. Using a combined approach of light, confocal and electron microscopy, this study focused on the parasite attachment to and localization on the host body. Special attention was given to parasite?s digestive, reproductive and excretory systems. The attachment apparatusalong with attached muscle bundles forms during parasite?s development, which is clearly visible under the confocal microscope and in histological sections.
