A New Record of Tracheliastes Maculatus Kollar , 1835 ( Copepoda , Siphonostomatoida , Lernaeopodidae ) on Common Bream ( Abramis Brama ( L . , 1758 ) ) in the Netherlands

Feeding behavior and brain acetylcholinesterase activity in bream (Abramis brama L.) as affected by DDVP, an organophosphorus insecticide.

1. Bream (Abramis brama) were exposed to sublethal concentration of organophosphorus insecticide DDVP and the amount of food consumed and brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) examined in exposed fish. 2. Exposure to DDVP resulted in decreased amount of food consumed and inhibited brain AChE activity. 3. Intraperitoneal injection of the fish with cholinergic drugs, atropine and TMB-4 recovered the ...

Infection of the heart of the common bream, Abramis brama (L.), with Myxobolus s.l. dogieli (Myxozoa, Myxobolidae).

Myxobolus dogieli Bykhovskaya-Pavlovskaya & Bykhovski, 1940 is regarded as a site specific myxosporean, infecting the heart of cyprinid fish.
