All Quiet on the Western Front? The evolutionary history of monogeneans (Dactylogyridae: Cichlidogyrus, Onchobdella) infecting a West and Central African tribe of cichlid fishes (Chromidotilapiini)

T. Moons, N. Kmentova, A. Pariselle…·A. J. Cruz-Laufer

This study examines the evolutionary history of monogenean parasites infecting cichlid fishes in West and Central Africa, finding monophyletic parasite lineages and evidence of sympatric and allopatric speciation.

Host lifestyle and parasite interspecific facilitation mediate co-infection in a species-poor host-parasite system

N. Kmentova, A. J. Cruz-Laufer, L. Milec…·M. P. M. Vanhove

The paper studies co-infection dynamics in a simple host-parasite system, finding that parasite distribution and infection patterns depend on host mobility, lifestyle changes, and interspecific parasite interactions.

Somewhere I belong: phylogeny and morphological evolution in a species-rich lineage of ectoparasitic flatworms infecting cichlid fishes

A. J. Cruz-Laufer, A. Pariselle, M. W. P. Jorissen…·M. P. M. Vanhove

The paper uses molecular, morphological, and host data to analyze phylogeny and evolution in a lineage of flatworms infecting cichlid fishes, finding that discrete characters can mask signals but are key for species grouping.
