It was a one volume book that included keys for all parasite groups to the species level. Its translation is only one available internationally to present day. The second edition, also in Russian, was published between 1984 and 1987 and consists of three volumes (editor-in-chief O.N. Bauer). The second volume deals mostly with monogenenans (editor A.V. Gussev) and includes 24 keys and 16 supplements. In this volume, the Dactylogyri- dae (sensu Bychowsky et Nagibina, 1978) includes seven genera, and two separate keys can be used to identify over 200 nominal Dactylogyrus species. Three keys identify about 50 species in two subfamilies of the Ancyrocephalidae (sensu Bychowsky, 1937), and the Tetraonchidae in- cludes 20 species. Keys for four genera in the Gyrodactylidae identify about 150 nominal species. For the polyopisthcotyleans, several keys can be used to identify more than 30 species from 10 genera. Overall, about 500 species of monogeneans can be identified to species level using the keys and supplements in this book. Thus, this volume became popular among ichthyoparasitolo- gists, despite it being written in Russian. Currently, it is a rare book. More than 20 years have passed since the second edition was published, and many new monogenan species have been described. New data from different countries exists, and some re- visions to different monogenean taxa have been published. Therefore, preparation of a second edition English language “Guide to the Monogenoidea of Freshwater Fish of the Palaearctic and Amur Regions” seems to be of current importance. Because fish parasites, especially monogeneans, follow their host’s distribution, in gen- eral fish zoogeography reflects monogenean distribution. The terms “Palaearctic” and “Nearctic” are not zoogeographical units but can be used for notational convenience (Banarescu, 1992).Palaearctic defines the Eurasian part of the Holarctic that includes the Euro-Mediterranean, Circumpolar (the Asian part) (Berg, 1949), Baikal, and western Mongolian subregions. The Sa- hara marks a sharp southern border between northwestern Africa which belongs to Palaearctic and contains mainly European aquatic fauna, and tropical African and Ethiopian regions. In con- trast, vague borders exist in western Asia: Southern Anatolia, the entire Near East, central and southern Iran, and parts of Afghanistan must be considered as transitional areas between the Euro-Mediterranean subregion and the South Asian subregion of the Sino-Indian region (Ba- narescu, 1992). The same is true for the Amur River, which is transitional area between the Cir- cumpolar subregion and the Sino-Indian region. Considering that a number of fish species from the Amur River were introduced into European aquaculture, a separate key for Dactylogyrus spe- cies of Amur River fishes is included in this edition, in contrast to species from other transitional areas which are inserted to a common keys. Some precise data on monogenean distribution can be found in Pugachev’s (2002) “Checklist of the Freshwater Fish Parasites of the Northern Asia” and Moravec’s (2001) “Checklist of the Metazoan Parasites of Fishes of the Czech Republic and Slo- vak Republic (1873–2000).” When adding newly described species and species from new geographic regions to the keys from the 1985 publication, it seemed prudent to retain the structure of the keys. This pro- vides continuity between the previous and current editions of the book that would have been lacking if the keys were completely revised. Moreover there is no modern accepted monoge- nean classification. Although the more conservative monogenean classification was used in this edition, it does not greatly influence the identification process. Therefore, some monogenean groups maintain their systematic status (e.g., order Tetraonchidea, family Ancyrocephalidae, etc.). However, some groups obviously need revision (e.g., genera Dactylogyrus and Gyrodac- tylus). Many changes were made in this edition of the book. For simplicity, the small theoretical chapters (e.g., infection pathways of monogeneans and marine monogenean species) from the second edition were excluded from this one. A new family—Bothitrematidae, with the genus Bothitrema—was added to the common key of families. The key for Dactylogyrus now includes 62 additional species, and the key for Gyrodactylus now includes 25 new species. The key for the 6 GUIDE TO MONOGENOIDEA OF FRESHWATER FISH OF PALAEARTIC AND AMUR REGIONS 381 382 383 384 Fig. 381 – 384. 381 - Haplocleidus dispar (CO – right - after Lambert, 1977a; left – after Ergens et Lom, 1970). 382 - Urocleidus similis (after Lambert, 1977a; right CO – after Ergens et Lom, 1970). 383 - Actino- cleidus oculatus (after Lambert, 1977a). 384 - Actinocleidus recurvatus (after Lambert, 1977a). 301 GUIDE TO MONOGENOIDEA OF FRESHWATER FISH OF PALAEARTIC AND AMUR REGIONS Fig. 385 - Pseudodactylogyrus bini, total drawing from ventral view (after Gussev, 1965). Designations are the same as on Fig. 1. IV. Representatives of a peculiar genus, Pseudodactylogyrus Gussev, 1965, can be found on gills of Anguilla anguilla in Palaearctic natural waters. Species of this genus have been formerly described as belonging to Dactylogyrus and Neodactylogyrus, but this designation is incorrect. Three species of this genus are known at present: Pseudodactylogyrus bini (Kikuchi, 1929), P. an- guillae (Yin et Sproston, 1948), and P. microrchis Ogawa et Egusa, 1976. They are found on the 302 GUIDE TO MONOGENOIDEA OF FRESHWATER FISH OF PALAEARTIC AND AMUR REGIONS gills of A. japonica, A. anguilla in the rivers and fish farms of Japan and China and A. reinchardti in Australia (Kikuchi, 1929; Yin and Sproston, 1948; Gussev, 1965; Ogawa and Egusa, 1976). Pseudodactylogyrus differs from other Dactylogyridae and many of the Ancyrocephalidae in having only one reservoir of the prostatic gland. The main difference is the armament of the hap- tor, which contains seven pairs of marginal hooks of the larval type, one pair of peculiar anchors directed with the point toward the ventral side of the haptor, and only one bar, which is ventral. No traces of the needle-shaped structures found in Dactylogyridae and in Anaconthorus (Ancyrocepha- linae) have been noted. These peculiarities, and the fact that it parasitizes fishes that are very far geographically from the common hosts of Dactylogyridae, indicate that Pseudodactylogyrus is phy- logenetically nearer to the Ancyrocephalinae than to the Dactylogyridae. It seems that their ances- tors, which would have had two pairs of anchors, lost a pair, unlike other ancyrocephalid genus Tri- anchoratus, which has rudiments of it. Table 3.
