This is one of the screens from the Sample Cases section of FishGuts.

In this case, the parasite Argulus is found on a group of toadfish. The Argulus were responsible for a secondary bacterial infection. As parasites are presented with each case, information on parasite taxonomy and host relationship are given. QuickTime movies show the parasites alive and in motion. Often times this is very helpful for identification purposes.
