Description Diplozoidae monogeneans are unique fish-gill parasites comprising two individuals fused together. Fusion takes while on the gill and involves the coming together of two diporpae larva, resulting in maturation to adulthood. During the period from 1998 to 2001, a study of reproductive biology and microhabitat ecology of monogenean species Eudiplozoon nipponicum has been performed under the experimental condition. Moreover, using light, confocal and electron microscopical methodologies neuromusculature systems of diporpa, juvenile and adult. E. nipponicum have been examined. Detail analysis of parasite seasonal life cycle including microhabitat segregation and intraspecific spatial niche competition have been performed in relation to parasite ontogenetic development.
