- Abstract
Summary In this study the eyes, gills, skin, fins and mouths of 216 individuals of two cyprinids species ( Capoeta trutta and Chondrostoma regium) caught in the Keban Dam Lake, Elazig, Turkey, were examined for the Lamproglena pulchella parasite; 135 L. pulchella were found on gills of 61 of 216 fish. Body sizes of some of the parasites were measured; prevalence, mean intensity and abundance of L. pulchella were 28.24, 2.21 ± 2.17 and 0.63 ± 1.52, respectively. No influence of host sex on parasite dispersion was observed.
