Abstract

During the early summer of 2021 several sticklebacks with massive Dermocystidium infestation were caught in lake Vättern, Sweden. In this brief report we present a histological investigation of the host-parasite relationship, and by 18S rRNA gene sequencing identify the parasite as Dermocystidium gasterostei Elkan, closely related to Dermocystidium percae.
