They were found in four rivers in West Azerbaijan Province (North-Western Iran) . A total of 207 live Carassius carassius from four rivers including Aras (72) Zariyneh (42) Nazlo (58) and Barandoz (35) were studied. Pa...

in this paper, the metazoan parasite community system of capoeta damascina in the tigris basin (mesopotamian region) in the middle-east is presented. overall, 54 species have been identified. between 2005 and 2008, iranian surveys of capoeta damascina found a total of 47 metazoan parasites species, most identified to species level. in addition, 6 parasite species from iraq and 1 species from oc...

صخلملا A total of 48 fresh water fishes, belonging to four species of the family Cyprinidae (Capoeta trutta, Chalcalburnus mossulensis, Cyprinion macrostomum and Leuciscus lepidus) were collected from Darbandikhan lake, southwest Sulaimaniya city, Kurdistan region, in the north of Iraq, from March to the end of July 2008. The inspection of gills revealed the infection of these fishes with four ...

The monogenean ectoparasite genera Dactylogyrus and Gyrodactylus are hyperdiverse, and yet monogenean communities infecting freshwater fish in the northern Holarctic are variable and often impoverished. This is a result of extinctions during periods of glaciation when the host fishes experienced range contraction. Fish species recolonised northern Europe by one of three routes; stenohaline fish...

Leuciscus persidis as Iranian endemic fish in Kaftar lake and its headwaters (Mesopotamian subregion, Kor-Neiriz basin and Shadkam river) has been infected with a species of Dactylogyrus sphyrna. Comparison of collected parasites with Euro-Asian subregion showed that the similarity of them is more than their differences, although a little difference between them was observed. In this paper also...

Sperata aor commonly called as long- whiskered cat fish or "Bada Tengan" in local fish markets harboured one new and one previously known species of genus Thaparocleidus Jain, 1952, along with two species of Cornudiscoides Kulkarni, 1969, infesting gills. Thaparocleidus aori (Rizvi, 1971) Lim, 1996, was earlier described by Rizvi therefore was briefly recorded in the present study, except the e...

in the present study, we reported infection with eighteen species of the genus dactylogyrus, belong to thefamily dactylogyridae from five breeder fish species, including common carp (cyprinus carpio), grass carp(ctenopharyngodon idella), silver carp (hypophthalmichthys molitrix), big head carp (hypophthalmichthysnobilis) and black carp (myelopharyngodon piceus) which introduced and imported to ...
