Diversity "down under": monogeneans in the Antipodes (Australia) with a prediction of monogenean biodiversity worldwide.
TL;DR: Despite reductions in research funding, the value of parasite taxonomy must not be underestimated, particularly in regions of the world that have a rich diversity of potential hosts.

Nemertean, copepod, and amphipod symbionts of the dimorphic ascidian Pyura stolonifera near Melbourne, Australia : specificities to host morphs, and factors affecting prevalences
TL;DR: One of very few definite nemertean-ascidian symbioses is identified and it is suggested that all three symbionts are commensals rather than parasites or mutuals.

The isopod parasites (Crustacea: Isopoda: Bopyridae) of decapod Crustacea of Queensland, Australia, with descriptions of three new species.
TL;DR: Thirty species of Bopyridae in 25 genera and six subfamilies are listed for Queensland, of which 13 represent new state records, and eight are new to the Australian fauna, with descriptions of three new species.
Review of the parasitic genus Epipenaeon Nobili, 1906 (Crustacea: Isopoda: Bopyridae), with new records and redescription of four species from China
TL;DR: All species reported are redescribed from new material and a key to the genus Epipenaeon Nobili is provided, and four host species are recorded for the first time bearing parasitic isopods.

Genetic similarity between samples of the orange roughyHoplostethus atlanticus from the Tasman Sea, South-west Pacific Ocean and North-east Atlantic Ocean
TL;DR: There was little genetic differentiation between populations separated by a distance of approximately 21 000 km, while at a third locus a rare allele was found only in the Atlantic Ocean.

Gall-Bladder Myxosporea in Coral-Reef Fishes From Heron Island, Australia
TL;DR: Seven new species from the gall bladder are described: Sphaerospora mayi, Ceratomyxa rohdei, Zschokkella heronensis, Cer atomyxa sprenti, Chloromyxum noblei, Sinuolinea lesteri and suppresses Myxidium bergense in favour of M. sphaericum.

Parasites of estuarine and oceanic flathead fishes (Family Platycephalidae) from northern New South Wales
TL;DR: Macrohabitat distributions of hosts, as shown by diet and locality, was also important to parasite species; parasite faunas of estuarine P. fuscus and oceanic P. bassensis contrasted markedly.

Structure and development of Lobatostoma manteri sp.nov. (Trematoda: Aspidogastrea) from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia
TL;DR: The life-cycle of Lobatostoma manteri is the simplest two-host cycle of trematodes known and must be considered the most primitive one, of a type from which digenean life-cycles have evolved.

Hysterothylacium, Iheringascaris and Maricostula new genus, nematodes (Ascaridoidea) from Australian pelagic marine fishes
TL;DR: Approval is established for those species that have lips with lateral flanges, deep postlabial grooves, interlabia, and elongate intestinal caecum, pyriform ventriculus, long sac-like ventricular appendix, an expanded filamentar excretory system and excretary pore near the nerve ring.
