Cichlidogyrus evikae is a species of monopisthocotylean monogenean in the family Dactylogyridae (or Ancyrocephalidae according to certain classifications). It is a parasite of the gills of the fish Tanganicodus irsacae (Perciforme, Cichlidae) in Lake Tanganyika, Burundi.[1]

Etymology

The spotfin goby cichlid (Tanganicodus irsacae) is the type-host of Cichlidogyrus evikae

According to Rahmouni, Vanhove & Šimková, “the name evikae was given in honour of the Czech parasitologist Dr. Eva Řehulková (Department of Botany and Zoology, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University, Czech Republic) who studies monogenean flatworms, for her contributions to their research.” [1]

gollark: I mean that it has isolation mechanisms, so other stuff like memory management should not allow stuff to access other things in violation of those.

gollark: Can most programs do that, however?

gollark: ... yes you should. Linux has options to isolate processes from each other like namespaces.

gollark: I actually run a userspace OOM killer, due to bee.

gollark: I FINALLY managed to invoke some dark bee gods and restore the somewhat fragile powerline link to my room, thus slightly less awful connection.
