Suggestions for various terms used by parasitologists when describing the ecology of parasites are provided in an attempt to foster consistent use and to make terms used in parasite ecology easier to interpret for those who study free-living organisms.

Epidemiological parameters of White Spot Syndrome Virus infections in Litopenaeus vannamei and L. setiferus.
An experimental protocol based on a mathematical epidemiology model was developed to study the transmission, virulence, and recovery rates of White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) in Litopenaeus vannamei, finding the epidemic threshold density may be lower for ingestion transmission than cohabitation transmission and lower for L. setiferus.

Positive interactions are more common than negative interactions in determining the species richness of helminth infracommunities of bats, and positive associations become even more important as the community becomes more complex.
