Resumen

Understanding ectoparasite diversity and infestation rates among elasmobranch hosts is therefore crucial for conservation, but baseline data are unavailable for many species, including flapper skate:
• Parasites affect individuals’ health and fitness
• High parasitic burdens can indicate physiological stress, driven by
environmental pressures
• Parasites are increasingly used as biological indicators to monitor
impacts of anthropogenic pressures as well as wider environmental
changes (e.g. increasing temperatures, pollution, acidification; Morley
et al. 2006
