The Dynamics of the Ligula intestinalis Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea in Three Cyprinid Species [Alburnus escherichii Steindachner, 1897; Gobio gobio Linnaeus, 1758 and Squalius cephalus Linnaeus, 1758 ] in Çamkoru Pond Ankara-Turkey

Abstract

Pleurocercoids of the tapeworm Ligula intestinalis Linnaeus, 1758 were recorded from three fish species [Squalius cephalus Linnaeus, 1758 , Alburnus escherichii Steindachner, 1897 and Gobio gobio Linnaeus, 1758 ] in Çamkoru Pond Sakarya Basin-Turkey . This is the first record of L. intestinalis from G. gobio in Turkey. Infection prevelance is lower for S. cephalus 7.07% and G. gobio 7.5% when compared to A. escherichii 25.71% . The age composition of infected individuals of A. escherichii, G. gobio and S. cephalus, populations was as follows: III-VII; IV-V and I-II. The parasitisation index varied in A. escherichii between 0 and 18%, in G. gobio between 0 and 11.07% and in S. cephalus between 0 and 3.57%. The aim of this study is to compare dynamics of L. intestinalis pleurocercoids in three fish species of Çamkoru Pond. For this purpose; prevelance and intensity of infection, age and sex compositions of infected populations, seasonality of infection, the length and weight range of host species have been obtained and compared with other studies.
