freshwater fish zoonotic nematode and has  great importance for the environment, fishing
and human health. Also the infestation of <i>Eustrongylides
excisus </i>being paratenic hosts on pike-perch due to its predator feeding
regime. The importance of this nematode is the ability of the capacity to
infect carnivorous organisms and humans that feed on them. In this study, <i>Eustrongylides excisus </i> infestation was
determined from 51 samples of pike perch ( <i>Sander
lucioperca <span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);">L., 1758 </span> </i>) between October 2015 and February 2016 from Lake
Marmara (Manisa, Turkey). Each sample was observed and the prevalence of the
infestation was detected 100%.  The
parasite samples were examined in Carl Zeiss 300 VP scanning electron
microscope. The capsulated and encapsulated parasites were found in various
muscles, abdominal cavity and on the internal organs. Also, one sample was
detected in the swim bladder without any harm. From scanning electron
microscopy overviews, lips and papillae circles were detected on the anterior
portion of the body as characteristics for diagnosis of the genus <i>Eustrongylides. </i> <b> </b> </span> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b>}, number={2}, publisher={Bülent VEREP}
