Hosts and parasites as aliens
TLDR
It can be concluded that the adaptation of certain populations of the novel host to the alien parasite takes several decades to a century or more, and two helminths, the liver fluke and the swimbladder nematode, are shown to be useful as model parasites for the study of animal invasions and environmental global change.

Revision of the genus Anguillicola Yamaguti, 1935 (Nematoda: Anguillicolidae) of the swimbladder of eels, including descriptions of two new species, A. novaezelandiae sp. n. and A. papernai sp. n.
The genus Anguillicola is reviewed on the basis of the examination of some type specimens and other material. Two new species are described: A. novaezelandiae sp. n. from Anguilla australis (type…

The phylogenetics of Anguillicolidae (Nematoda: Anguillicoloidea), swimbladder parasites of eels
TLDR
The Anguillicolidae is part of a complex radiation of parasitic nematodes of vertebrates with wide host diversity (chondrichthyes, teleosts, squamates and mammals), most closely related to other marine vertebrate parasites that also have complex life cycles.

Evolutionary divergence of the swim bladder nematode Anguillicola crassus after colonization of a novel host, Anguilla anguilla
TLDR
The differences in infectivity and developmental dynamics between European and Taiwanese populations of A. crassus found in the study suggest rapid genetic divergence of this parasite after a successful host switch in Europe.
