Title

Review of freshwater fish parasitofauna of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Abstract

This paper contains results from ichthyofaunal research of freshwater fish in Bosnia and Herzegovina during 20th and at the beginning of twenty-first century. We found presence of more than 100 parasitic species from different groups in 52 freshwater fish species from Black Sea and Adriatic basins and some breeding ponds. Detected parasites belong to Trematoda – 25 species, Monogenea – 15, Cestoda – 16, Nematoda – 15, Acanthocephala - 11, Oligohymenophorea - 5, Phyllopharyngea - 3, and Copepoda – 2 species. Other detected parasite groups are Kinetoplastea, Trepomonadea, Myxosporea, Myxoza, Ichthyostraca, Clitellata and Bivalvia with one species each. This study shows the necessity of research of complete parasitic fauna of freshwater fish in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
