Eugregarine apicomplexans parasitize marine, freshwater and terrestrial invertebrates, and have lifecycles involving trophozoites (feeding stages) with complex morphologies and behaviour. The genus Lankesteria refers to marine aseptate eugregarines t...

The genus Haplozoon comprises a group of endoparasites infecting the intestines of polychaete worms. Comparative studies using light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and small subunit rDNA have shown that these organisms are...

Respiration rates in Littorina littorea infected with three species of digenean parasite (2001)
Journal Article
Huxham, M., Maitland, D., & Mocogni, M. (2001). Respiration rates in Littorina littorea infected with three species of digenean parasite. Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the UK, 81(02), 351-352. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0025315401003885

The gastropod Littorina littorea shows increased mortality in the summer months when infected with digenean parasites. One possible cause of this mortality is impaired respiration in infected hosts. Respiration rates of L. littorea infected with thre... Read More about Respiration rates in Littorina littorea infected with three species of digenean parasite.

Predator caging experiments: a test of the importance of scale (1999)
Journal Article
Fernandes, T. F., Huxham, M., & Piper, S. R. (1999). Predator caging experiments: a test of the importance of scale. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 241(1), 137-154. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0022-0981%2899%2900076-3

The impact of predators is often relative to the spatial scale at which the study is conducted. In this paper we investigated how spatial scale might influence the importance of predation. In doing this we addressed the hypothesis of scale-dependency... Read More about Predator caging experiments: a test of the importance of scale.
