Seven species of the genus Trichodina Ehrenberg, 1838 were identified during a sampling programme of twenty freshwater fish species from approximately sixty sites in Scotland, England and Wales. Species found include: Trichodina acuta Lom, 1961 from Cyprinus carpio L., Carassius auratus L., Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), Salmo trutta L. and Phoxinus phoxinus L.; Trichodina domerguei Wallengren,...

In the present investigation a total of six parasite species, some eye-specific and others non-organ specific parasites were found in the eyes of 48 examined fish species, collected from fresh and brackish waters of Iran during 2004-2006. Ichthyophthirius multifiliis  was isolated from the external surface of the eyes of Oncorhynchus mykiss, Gyrodactylus stankovici from Cyprinus carpio and Lern...

Susceptibility of five species of Cyprinidae and Salmonidae freshwater fish to the early third-stage larvae (EaL3) and advanced third-stage larvae (AdL3) of Gnathostoma nipponicum infection were examined. Two fish species inoculated orally with EaL3 were infected, and AdL3 were recovered from them with rate of 21.0% in Tribolodon hakonensis and 0.5% in Cyprinus carpio at 30 days postinoculation...

In many North American rivers, populations of multiple species of non-native cyprinid fishes are present, including black carp (Mylpharyngodon piceus), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis), silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), common carp (Cyprinus carpio), and goldfish (Carassius auratus). All six of these species are found in the Mississippi Ri...

Malachite green and formalin were investigated as prophylactic dip treatments for developing embryos of Cyprinus carpio and Clarias gariepinus. Based on the findings, recommendations are made on the respective concentrations to be used and exposure periods to be followed for both formalin and malachite green for both fish species.

Concentrations of Ag, Cu and Zn were studied in muscle and liver of Barbus plebejus, Cyprinus carpio and Leuciscus cephalus from Kilickaya Reservoir. The heavy metal analysis of samples were carried out by using a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The mean heavy metal concentrations of Ag, Cu and Zn were obtained as 1.47±3.44, 1.65±3.31 and 2.89±4.52 μg/g in muscle and 1.78±4.19, 2.07±...

The present study attempts to identify some of the differences between skull bones two species Cyprinus carpio and Carassius carassius, which belong Cyprinidae family. is a taxonomic diagnostic are considered local fish abundant in Iraqi aquatic environment

this paper presents a total of 11 known crustacean parasite species from 51 host species belonging to 7 families, with 17 genera reported from cultured and wild fishes in three faunal regions of iran. among them, one belonging to branchiura order, namely argulus foliaceus, was found on capoeta capoeta in makoo reservoir as well as on cyprinus carpio, chalcalburnus sp., hypophthalmichthys molitr...
