An analysis of parasitic fauna of greenland halibut, Reinhardtius hippoglossoides (Walbaum, 1792) in different age groups

Abstract

An analysis was made of infestation of the Greenland halibut in different age groups with parasitic Protozoa and Metazoa. The fishes originated from the Barents Sea and off the Labrador and aged from 3+ to 11+ (single specimens 12+, 13+). In order to verify the relationships under discussion, statistical methods were used, too.
