Salinity stress is a major factor determining the abundance and distribution patterns of marine organisms. This is particularly relevant for organisms that live near freshwater sources such rivers and streams, like the ghost shrimp Neotrypaea uncinata. In addition branchial chamber of this species is parasitized by the bopyrid isopod Ionella agassizi. In consequence, this species is exposed at two stress sources, osmotic due to salinity variations and respiratory for the parasite effects in its respiratory physiology. We evaluated the effects of both salinity and parasitism on the concentration of respiratory molecules and the regulation of the acid-base equilibrium. We measured the hemolymphatic pH, PCO2 and the concentrations of Na+, K+, ...
