Parasite predators exhibit a rapid numerical response to increased parasite abundance and reduce transmission to hosts

Predators of parasites have recently gained attention as important parts of food webs and ecosystems. In aquatic systems, many taxa consume free-living stages of parasites, and can thus reduce parasite transmission to hosts. However, the importance of the functional and numerical responses of parasi...
