The representatives of the class Monogenea are great importance in fish pathology. Dactylogyrus vastator (Nybelin 1924) (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) is a common pathogenic monogenean parasite carp (Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758) from freshwater lakes and cyprinid ponds, worldwide. In our study, total 133 specimens cage culture system on Mladost Reservoir (N. Macedonia) were subjected to parasit...

Chronic exposure to high biofloc total suspended solids (TSS) could affect growth, red blood cells, and generate gill alterations in fish. Red pacu, Piaractus brachypomus, fry (2.7 ± 0.5 g weight) were exposed different TSS concentrations with low (T1: 200–300), medium (T2: 400–600 mg/L) levels compared a treatment control (TC) without during 45-day period 50 L experimental units (in quadruplic...

The Anthropocene is characterised by the unparalleled human-mediated passage of organisms from their natural ranges to ecosystems across world (Capinha et al., 2015; Ricciardi, 2007). If these non-native manage disperse initial introduction point and seed new populations in range, they are regarded as invasive (Blackburn 2011; Richardson 2011). This reshuffling world's biota a decisive agent gl...

Menziesia sebastodis (Capsalidae: Monogenea) is found and described from the gill filaments and the gill rakers of the black rockfish, Sebastes inermis, caught at Dolsan Island, off the south coast of Yeosu, Jeollanam-do, Korea. The genus Menziesia is distinguished from other related genera Benedenia, Megalobenedenia and Trochopus, by septate haptors and the morphology of copulatory organs. M. ...
