چکیده

There has been no previous parasitological survey of perch Perca fluviatilis in Turkey. Consequently, the objectives of the present study were to investigate the metazoan parasite communities of perch and also to calculate infection parameters of the parasites in a eutrophic lake. A total of 52 perch were collected seasonally from Lake Sığırcı in Ipsala, Turkey, between April 2009 and February 2010. Perca fluviatilis specimens were parasitized by eight species. The parasite prevalence and mean intensity (MI), respectively, for the whole material were: Gyrodactylus sp., 5.8%, MI (± SD) 2.6 ± 0.57; Diplostomum sp., 71.1%, MI 6.2 ± 4.64; Tylodelphys clavata, 98.1%, MI 175.7 ± 62.64; Tetracotyle sp., 3.9%, MI 1.5 ± 0.70; Clinostomum complanatum, 15.4%, MI 3.5 ± 4.40; Proteocephalus percae, 55.7%, MI 47.10 ± 55.67; Eustrongylides excisus, 94.2%, MI 42.2 ± 62.89; Glochidium sp., 30.8%, MI 23.5 ± 27.42. From the current results it can be concluded that, in perch from Lake Sığırcı, T. clavata, E. excisus, Diplostomum sp. and P. percae are the most prevalent parasite species.

Postglacial colonization shows evidence for sympatric population splitting of Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis L) in Lake Constance.

Previous microsatellite analysis showed that two subpopulations of perch (Perca fluviatilis L) exist in Lake Constance. This raises questions of whether (i). Lake Constance was colonized by two populations that diverged in allopatry, or (ii). the two subpopulations diverged in sympatry. Sequence analysis of a 365 bp mtDNA fragment (5'-end of the D-loop) of perch from Lake Constance and adjacent...
