PREVALENCE OF HELMINTH PARASITES IN DIGESTIVE TRACT OF PERSIAN STURGEON (ACIPENSER PERSICUS) BROODSTOCKS SOUTHEAST OF THE CASPIAN SEA
We collected 100 specimens of Persian sturgeon broodstocks propagated in Shahid Marjani Fish Culture Center to study internal parasites during March, April, and May 2005. The center is located in the southeast of the Caspian Sea. Three different parasite species were recovered from digestive tract (...

| description | We collected 100 specimens of Persian sturgeon broodstocks propagated in Shahid Marjani Fish Culture Center to study internal parasites during March, April, and May 2005. The center is located in the southeast of the Caspian Sea. Three different parasite species were recovered from digestive tract (stomach and intestine) of the fish.Cucullanus sphaerocephalus, Skrjabinopsolus semiarmatus showed the highest incidence and highest mean intensity (with prevalence of 80% and 55% respectively) but Leptorhynchoides plagicephalus had the lower prevalene 2 %. The prevalence of S. semiarmatus and C. sphaerocephalus were higher in males than in females whereas the intensity of these parasites was higher in females than in males. Statistical analysis of data showed a significant relationship between the occurrence of S. semiarmatus and the sex of the fish. There was a significant relationship between the occurrence of C. sphaerocephalus and the length of the fish (P £0.05). Forty nine percent of the fish had less than 10 worms. It was also found that the internal parasites of A. persicus in the southeast of the Caspian Sea are the same as those found in the southwest but the diversity of parasites were fewer in the former. |
