Google is your friend. Put some parasites under a microscope and compare pics online. Try every search term you can think of and set your search engine to 'images'.
Once you determine what you have, research how to deal with it.

I would also take a specimen as Greg mentioned and proceed accordingly.
Depending on what it is, wrasses may or may not be interested in it as a food source, and may not even go after it if it is food. Not all cleaner wrasses 'know' how to clean fish.

I've had cleaner shrimp run away from fish that tried to 'park' themselves in a perfect spot, only to be ignored.
