2001
Ho, J. (California State Univ., Long Beach (USA)) | Nagasawa, K. | Takatsu, T.
The stomach contents of seven juvenile cresthead flounder [Pleuronectes sclhrenki (Schmidt)] from Lake Notoro in Hokkaido reported by Takatsu et al. (1999) as containing parasitic copepods were restudied. The results show some juvenile cresthead flounder behaved like a cleaner and picked the chalimus larvae of Lepeophtheirus sp. (Caligidae, Siphonostomatoida) off their fish hosts.
