Henneguya zschokkei or Henneguya salminicola is a species of a myxosporean endoparasite. It afflicts several salmon in the genera Oncorhynchus and Salmo,[2][3] where it causes milky flesh or tapioca disease.[1] H. zschokkei is notable for its reliance on an exclusively anaerobic metabolism as well as its lack of mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA.[4] It is the only known multicellular animal that does not require oxygen to survive.[5]
