Hooked on you: shape of attachment structures in cymothoid isopods reflects parasitic strategy
BACKGROUND: Parasite attachment structures are critical traits that influence effective host exploitation and survival. Morphology of attachment structures can reinforce host specificity and niche specialisation, or even enable host switching. Therefore, it is important to understand the determinant...
