    Any organism that lives in or one the body of another living organism and obtains nourishment from it (Pyenson, 1951).
    A plant or animal living on or in another plant or animal, which is called its host. The host continues, for some time at least, to live and feed its parasite (contrast predator) but may eventually be killed by it. A parasite of one host may itself be a host to another parasite, so the terms are relative. A crop-eating insect could be called a parasite or a herbivore, but is not usually so-called. It is usually simply called a pest, which may be subject to parasites, themselves perhaps subject to 'hyper-parasites'. A fungus living on the crop is always called a parasite (Hartley & West, 1966).
    An organism living in intimate association with a living organism (plant or animal) from which it derives material essential for its existence while conferring no benefit in return (Hill, 1983).

27 May 2012

This day in history: The Queen Mary made her maiden voyage, on the Southampton-Cherbourg-New York route, on 27 May 1936. The passenger accommodation emphasised the first two classes, cabin and tourist. The propulsion machinery of the ship produced a massive 160,000 SHP and gave it a speed of over 30 knots. Despite expectations that the ship would try to break speed records on its first voyage a thick fog destroyed any hope of this. The Queen Mary spent a short time in drydock during July whilst adjustments were made to the propellers and turbines. When the ship returned to service, in August, it made a record voyage from Bishop's Rock to Ambrose light and took the Blue Riband from the Normandie. read more
