摘要

Abstract

We collected 3 596 Metapenaeopsis stridulans (Decapoda: Penaeidae) from the southeast coast of India between January and December 2007. Sixty three specimens (43 females and 18 males) were parasitized by the bopyrid isopod Epipenaeon ingens (Isopoda: Bopyridae). This is the first report of the occurrence of E. ingens in this host; therefore

it was considered as a new host record. The highest level of infestation (3.2%) occurred in October 2007

coincident with observations of gravid females (9). The total prevalence and presence of gravid females were 17.46% and 28%

respectively. Infestation caused a characteristic bulge of the branchial chamber

growth retardation

and degeneration of the sex organs

but had no effect on the host weight.
