Bu çalışmada Sarıöz Deresi’nden (Beyşehir) elektroşokerle avlanan (dört mevsim) 148 adet siraz balığı (Capoeta mauricii) helmint parazitler yönünden incelenmiştir. İnceleme sonucunda; 5 farklı gruba ait helminth parazite rastlanılmıştır (monogenea: Paradiplozoon sp. ve Dactylogyrus turcicus, digenea: Allocreadium isoporum, nematoda: Rhapdochona sp., acanthocephala: Pomphorhynchus spindletruncat...

Willomitzer J.: Therapy of Major Ectoparasitoses in Grasscarp (Ctenopharyngodon idella ) Fry and Fingerlings. Acta vet., 49, 1980: 279-282. Dipping, short-term and long-term baths in solutions of common substances (potassium permanganate, formaline, common salt) currently recommended for the control of ectoparasites of the genera Chilodonella, Trichodinella and Dactylogyrus in grasscarp fry and...

T _ Tfcjff he effectiveness of EarthTec compound against the monogenetic trematode Dactylogyrus lamellatus was assessed, using 14 different concentrations, ranging from 0.03 to 60.0 mg Cu/L. The result indicated that short bath treatments at concentrations ranging from 42.0 to 60.0 mg Cu/L could kill the parasite, however, they might be toxic to the stressed grass carp. Concerning long bath tre...

The structure and stability of parasite communities have been mainly explained by high diversity and strong interactions among parasite species. During 16 months, 558 Barbus martorelli gill infracommunities were studied in a tropical zone to determine whether parasite infrapopulations interact. Three levels were retained: the infracommunity level, the gill filament level, and the filament fract...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was identification of the parasites of the common carp from Tahtalı Dam Lake. METHODS The fish were transported live to the laboratory. They were investigated for ectoparasites and endoparasites. The parasite specimens were fixed and identified. RESULTS During the study, 47 common carp were caught monthly and 3 species of metazoan parasites were found: Dactyl...

The present study was aimed to investigate parasitic infection of an imported ornamental fish shubunkin, a variety of goldfish, Carassius auratus. The body weight and total length of fish ranged from 1.2-11.8 g and 3.311.6 cm respectively. Thirty fishes were examined, 19 fishes were found infected with one or more species of parasites. The prevalence was 63.33%. Five species of parasites belong...

The hammerhead shark possesses a unique head morphology that is thought to facilitate enhanced olfactory performance. The olfactory chambers, located at the distal ends of the cephalofoil, contain numerous lamellae that increase the surface area for olfaction. Functionally, for the shark to detect chemical stimuli, water-borne odors must reach the olfactory sensory epithelium that lines these l...

Histopathological changes in gills of a native fish Capoeta aculeata, naturally-infected with parasites were studied. The specimens (15.5 to 22.8 cm) were collected from Choghakhor lagoon in West Iran. 35 (11%) of the total 318 studied fishes were infected with gill parasites. Overall, six protozoan and metazoan parasite species were collected from fishes including Ichthyophthirius multifiliis,...
