On the Entozoa of Fishes from the Firth of Clyde

Abstract

The material on which the following notes are founded was collected during a short residence at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Millport, in August, 1908. A comprehensive survey of the marine fauna was impossible in so limited a time, but a fair idea of the parasites of some of the common fishes was obtained. I have to thank the Government Grant Committee of the Royal Society for enabling me to undertake this work. It is also necessary to gratefully acknowledge the courtesy of several members of the West of Scotland Marine Biological Association and of Mr Elmhirst, the director of the Millport Laboratory.
