Helminth Parasites of the Three-spined Stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus L., 1758 (Actinopterygii: Gasterosteidae) from a Black Sea Coastal Wetland, Bulgaria
ACTA ZOOLOGICA BULGARICA(2023)
摘要
Totally, 134 individuals of Gasterosteus aculeatus from the Lake Atanasovsko Wetland, Bulgaria, were examined for helminth parasites. Five helminth species were identified: the trematode Posthodiplosto-mum brevicaudatum (metacercariae), the monogenean Gyrodactylus arcuatus, the trypanorhynch cestode Progrillotia dasyatidis (plerocerci) and third-stage larvae of the ascaridoid nematodes Contracaecum sp. and Hysterothylacium sp. Of them, G. arcuatus was the most prevalent species, with prevalence (P%) 68.66, followed by P. brevicaudatum (P% 22.39). The remaining species were weakly represented: Hys-terothylacium sp. (P% 4.48), P. dasyatidis (P% 3.73) and Contracaecum sp. (P% 0.75). The present study is the first record of G. aculeatus as a host of a species of Contracaecum from the Black Sea basin. Gyro-dactylus arcuatus is a new record for the Bulgarian fauna.
