Comments: Gyrodactylus anguillae parasitizes the gills of anguillid eels, in particular the European eel (Anguilla<br />

anguilla). Genetic analysis indicates that it is native to Europe (Hayward et al., 2001). In addition to the translocations<br />

of live eels, ballast water may be an important vector.<br />
