The parasitic fauna included two myzozoans, one choanozoan, seven ciliophorans, 24 myxozoans, eight trematodes, 34 monogeneans, 12 cestodes, 11 nematodes, five acanthocephalans, two annelids and nine crustaceans. The infection with some trematodes and nematodes occurred with larval stages, while the remaining infections were either with trophozoites or adult parasites. Among the inspected fishes, Cyprinion macrostomum was infected with the highest number of parasite species (29 parasite species), followed by Carasobarbus luteus (26 species) and Arabibarbus grypus (22 species) while six fish species (Alburnus caeruleus, A. sellal, Barbus lacerta, Cyprinion kais, Hemigrammocapoeta elegans and Mastacembelus mastacembelus) were infected with only one parasite species each. The myxozoan Myxobolus oviformis was the commonest parasite species as it was reported from 10 fish species, followed by both the myxozoan M. pfeifferi and the trematode Ascocotyle coleostoma which were reported from eight fish host species each and then by both the cestode Schyzocotyle acheilognathi and the nematode Contracaecum sp.

The range of total length in the present specimens (130.4-250.1mm) is larger than the range quoted for C. sublimus. The indices characters to standard length (SL) varied from 7.4 % to 121.0 %, and the head characters to head length (HL) from 27.4% to 93.2%.

  • Checklists of Acanthocephalans of Freshwater and Marine Fishes of Basrah Province, Iraq
    Basrah J. Agric. Sci., 27(1): 12-43, 2014 Checklists of Acanthocephalans of Freshwater and Marine Fishes of Basrah Province, Iraq Furhan T. Mhaisen1, Najim R. Khamees2 and Atheer H.

Mhaisen1, 1 Tegnervӓgen 6B, 641 36 Katrineholm, Sweden 2 Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources, College of Agriculture, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq e-mail: [email protected] , Abstract. Reviewing the literature on all the acanthocephalans parasitizing freshwater and marine fishes of Basrah province, Iraq indicated the presence of 14 acanthocephalan taxa. Seven taxa belong to the class Eoacanthocephala and seven to the class Palaeacanthocephala. All these acanthocephalans, except Serrasentis spp. are adults living in the intestine of their fish hosts. Five species of such acanthocephalans were recorded from freshwater localities, seven from marine localities and two taxa from both freshwater and marine localities. The total number of acanthocephalan species recorded for each fish host species fluctuated from a minimum of one acanthocephalan species in 18 fish hosts to a maximum of six acanthocephalan species in Liza abu only. Number of fish hosts reported for these acanthocephalans fluctuated from one host in case of seven species to a maximum of 21 hosts in case of Neoechinorhynchus iraqensis.

  • Molecular and Morphological Phylogeny of Host-Specific
    Benovics et al. Parasites Vectors (2021) 14:372 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-021-04863-7 Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Molecular and morphological phylogeny of host-specifc Dactylogyrus parasites (Monogenea) sheds new light on the puzzling Middle Eastern origin of European and African lineages Michal Benovics1,2*, Farshad Nejat1, Asghar Abdoli3 and Andrea Šimková1 Abstract Background: Freshwater fauna of the Middle East encompass elements shared with three continents—Africa, Asia, and Europe—and the Middle East is, therefore, considered a historical geographic crossroad between these three regions. Even though various dispersion scenarios have been proposed to explain the current distribution of cyprinids in the peri-Mediterranean, all of them congruently suggest an Asian origin for this group. Herein, we investigated the proposed scenarios using monogenean parasites of the genus Dactylogyrus, which is host-specifc to cyprinoid fshes. Methods: A total of 48 Dactylogyrus species parasitizing cyprinids belonging to seven genera were used for molecu- lar phylogenetic reconstruction. Taxonomically important morphological features, i.e., sclerotized elements of the attachment organ, were further evaluated to resolve ambiguous relationships between individual phylogenetic lineages. For 37 species, sequences of partial genes coding 18S and 28S rRNA, and the ITS1 region were retrieved from GenBank. Ten Dactylogyrus species collected from Middle Eastern cyprinoids and D. falciformis were de novo sequenced for the aforementioned molecular markers. Results: The phylogenetic reconstruction divided all investigated Dactylogyrus species into four phylogenetic clades. The frst one encompassed species with the “varicorhini” type of haptoral ventral bar with a putative origin linked to the historical dispersion of cyprinids via the North African coastline.

  • Environmental Change and Its Impact on the Freshwater Fishes of Iran
    Biological Conservation 19 (1980 81) 51 80 ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE AND ITS IMPACT ON THE FRESHWATER FISHES OF IRAN BRIAN W. COAD't" Department of Biology, Pahlavi University, Shiraz, Iran ABSTRACT Factors affecting the distribution and abundance of,freshwater fishes in lran are described. These include climate, devegetation, irrigation, and natural water level fluctuations (termed pre-industrial) and such factors related to industrialisation and population increase as devegetation, water abstraction,fishing, pollution, andJaunal introductions. Conservation schemes are outlined and commented on and a list ~[ threatened fishes is given. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this paper is to describe those factors, both man-made and natural, which affect the distribution and abundance of Iranian freshwater fishes and to record and suggest measures for the conservation of this fauna. Fishes, particularly those of no economic value, do not receive the amount of attention from conservationists as do birds and mammals since they are not as readily observed and perhaps have less aesthetic appeal. The amateur ichthyologist is a rarity compared with the amateur ornithologist and mammalogist. A responsibility therefore lies with the professional ichthyologist to write about rare and endangered fishes. This is particularly true in a country like lran which is rapidly becoming industrialised, with consequent dangers to the fauna, and which in addition lacks an extended tradition of concerned amateur naturalists (Scott et al.. 1975) and where there have been few studies on fish ecology. Factors affecting distribution and abundance of fishes can therefore only be outlined in general terms 3 Present address: Ichthyology Section, National Museum of Natural Sciences, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada KIA OM8.

  • Host-Specific Dactylogyrus Parasites Revealing New Insights on The
    Šimková et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:589 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2521-x RESEARCH Open Access Host-specific Dactylogyrus parasites revealing new insights on the historical biogeography of Northwest African and Iberian cyprinid fish Andrea Šimková1*, Michal Benovics1, Imane Rahmouni2 and Jasna Vukić3 Abstract Background: Host specificity in parasites represents the extent to which a parasite’s distribution is limited to certain host species. Considering host-specific parasites of primarily freshwater fish (such as gill monogeneans), their biogeographical distribution is essentially influenced by both evolutionary and ecological processes. Due to the limited capacity for historical dispersion in freshwater fish, their specific coevolving parasites may, through historical host-parasite associations, at least partially reveal the historical biogeographical routes (or historical contacts) of host species. We used Dactylogyrus spp., parasites specific to cyprinid fish, to infer potential historical contacts between Northwest African and European and Asian cyprinid faunas. Using phylogenetic reconstruction, we investigated the origin(s) of host-specific Dactylogyrus spp. parasitizing Northwest African and Iberian cyprinid species. Results: In accordance with hypotheses on the historical biogeography of two cyprinid lineages in Northwest Africa, Barbini (Luciobarbus) and Torini (Carasobarbus), we demonstrated the multiple origins of Northwest African Dactylogyrus. Dactylogyrus spp. of Carasobarbus spp. originated from Asian cyprinids, while Dactylogyrus spp. of Luciobarbus spp. originated from European cyprinids. This indicates the historical Northern route of Dactylogyrus spp. dispersion to Northwest African Luciobarbus species rather than the Southern route, which is currently widely accepted for Luciobarbus. In addition, both Northwest African cyprinid lineages were also colonized by Dactylogyrus marocanus closely related to Dactylogyrus spp.
