الوصف: Anglerfish (Lophius piscatorius) collected from several locations in the southwestern European waters (from southwest of Ireland to northwest of Spain) were examined for the parasitic copepod Chondracanthus lophii in 2007, 2008 and 2009. The influence of host size, time (season, year) and spatial variables (geographical area, depth, latitude and longitude) on the infestation variability was studied. Zero-altered models (ZAMs) and generalized additive models (GAMs) were used to assess the prevalence and intensity of infection related to the variables studied. The variables which proved to have the greatest effects on the infestation were host size and geographical area, while the impact of variables such as year and season turned out to be less evident. Abundance, prevalence and intensity of C. lophii increased with host size. The highest infestation levels were recorded in the West of Ireland and on the Porcupine Bank, and within these areas the parasite load increased with latitude. Prevalence o...
