The present study was conducted to find out the prevalence, intensity and density of protozoan parasites of freshwater catfishes. Total four species of protozoan parasites were collected from 294 fishes. Out of four, three were ectoparasites and remaining one was endoparasite. Among the ectoparasites, Ichthyoptherius is the most prevalent parasites followed by Trichodina and Myxobolus. Among the infected fishes, Wallago attu (37.80%) harbored maximum number of ectoparasites followed by Clarius batrachus (33.78%), Heteropneustes fossilis (32.86%), and Mystus vittatus (26.47%). In the present investigation it was observed that none of Wallago attu and Mystus vittatus was infected with Trypanosoma, endoparasitic protozoa.

This study was carried out to identify common protozoan parasites associated with African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) from three different cultured ponds. All the fish parts from the three selected ponds in Ibadan North Local Government Area were infected with protozoan parasites. A total of forty five (45) Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) were examined for protozoan parasites infestation from three different ponds in Ibadan North Local Government Area of Oyo state. The parts of the fish that were examined are gills, skin, intestine and fins. In all, 6 different protozoan parasites were isolated from the fish samples examined. These were Ichthyobodo spp., Ichthyophthirius multifilis, Trichodina spp., Ambiphyta spp., Crytobian iubilans and Chilodonella spp. Ichthyobodo spp. and Ichthyophthirius multifilis were the most common protozoan parasites found in Pond A with each having a prevalence of 23.08%. Ichthyophthirius multifilis (23.08%) was the most common protozoan parasite found in Pond B. Similarly, Ichthyophthirius multifil,s (31.75%) Trichodina spp (20.63%) and Crytobian lubilans (19.05%) were the most common protozoan parasites found in fish in Pond C. Among the body parts of the sampled fishes in pond A, the gills had the highest percentage of parasites load 37(56.92%). However, in pond B, the fins of the catfish had the highest percentage of parasite load 20(30.77%). While In pond C, the skin had the highest percentage of parasite load 22(34.92%). Among the parasites found on the sampled fishes in pond A, Icthyobodo spp and. Ichthyophthirius multifilis had the highest abundance of the parasites (23.08%). In pond B, Ichthyobodo spp had the highest abundance of the parasites (23.08%) while in pond C, Ichthyophthirius multifilis had the highest abundance of the parasites (31.75%). Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that there is high prevalence of protozoan parasites in the study areas, therefore, adequate care should be taken in management of aquaculture.

Detection of some Helminthes and Protozoa Parasites in Different Fish ponds in Sulaimani Province2024 •
This study aimed to identify specific types of gastrointestinal helminthes and protozoa parasites that infect the Cyprinidae (Cyprinus carpio). During the growing period, 400 fish were randomly separated from five spawning fish ponds in Sulaimani province: Mara Rash (P1), Qalachwalan (P2), Kandashin (P3), Kalawanan (P4), and Piramagrun (P5). Fish infection with parasites was found to be 30.25% prevalent overall, with a high distribution rate of infestation in the P3 region of 48.75%. Diphyllobothrium latum, Ligula intestinalis, and Bothriocephalusacheilognathi were identified as the three helminthes species,with an overall prevalence rate of 22.75%, P3 had the highest examination rate of helminthes, with 9.25% of the Ligula intestinalis species, 7.5% of Diphyllobothrium latum, and 6% of Bothriecephalusopsariichthydis (acheilognathi) species. The t-test revealed the largest differences, at p-value (Two-tailed) < alpha 0.05, between the helminthes and protozoa parasites' prevalence and pond area. Three protozoa species have been identified, including Cryptosporidium spp., E. histolytica, and Eimeria spp.All spawning fish ponds had an overall prevalence rate of 7.75% of fish infested with protozoa; the greatest percentage was 2.75% for E. histolytica, followed by 2.5% for Eimeria spp., and 1.5% for Cryptosporidium spp. Based on the ponds, the most common protozoainfested fish were 5% of E. histolytica in P1, 3.75% of Cryptosporidium spp. in P3, and 3.75% of Eimeria spp. in P5. The investigation demonstrates that 1% of the mixed in various ponds were afflicted with protozoa parasites.

Diversity of Fish Parasites from fresh water fishes of Masooli Reservoir of Parbhani District2018 •
This study aimed to investigate the incidence and abundance of the parasites of fresh water fishes. A total 209 specimen of Cultivable and Catfishes were sampled from Masooli Reservoir of Parbhani District during the period of Oct 2011 to Sep 2012. Recorded parasites were analysed and identified as Senga from Cestodes, Argulus from Branchiura and Lamproglena from Copepodes separately. The total incidence and abundance was observed higher 12.6% and 0.23 in Catfishes as compared to the cultivable fishes1 i.e 11.82% and 0.18 In conclusion, it was found that Mystus seenghala from Catfishes and Catla-catla from Cultivable fishes shows heavy infection with large number of parasites. The parasites were collected from different parts of the body. Their abundance and clinical lesions could eventually reduce performance and productivity of the species.

Comparative study of African catfish parasites from cultured and natural habitatsBackground The study was conducted to compare parasitic loads of Clarias gariepinus from cultured and natural habitats. A total number of 80 live adults (200–799 g) C. gariepinus comprising of 20 each were randomly obtained from two cultured habitats (ponds) and two natural habitats (rivers). In the laboratory, these fish were all examined for the presence of parasites. Their sexes were identified while the lengths and weights were measured and recorded prior to dissection. The parasites observed were also identified using morphological characteristics. Results Out of the 80 C. gariepinus sampled, 43 (53.75%) were infected and a total of 409 parasites comprising of 141 (34.47%) ectoparasites and 268 (65.53%) endoparasites were observed from the infected fish. The prevalence of parasitic infection in cultured and natural habitats was 20% and 33.75%, respectively. The results showed that there was a significant difference (P < 0.05) in parasitic infection of C. gariepinus obtained ...

Occurrence of Protozoan Parasites From Climbing Perch, Anabas Testudineus From Open Waters of Bangladesh2020 •
The study was conducted to identify the protozoan parasites and to determine their occurrence and diversity in climbing perch, Anabas testudineus (Bloch, 1972). The sample fish species were collected from mid-October, 2018 to end of the December 2018 from freshwater bodies of Mymensingh, Kishoregonj, Faridpur and Jashore districts. Three species of myxozoa (Henneguya mystusia, Henneguya qadrii and Henneguya acerinae) and 4species of ciliophora (Trichodina acuta, Trichodina spp., Epistylis lwoffi and Amphileptus disciformis) were identified in A. testudineus. Approximately 76.19% of total fish species were infected by at least one of the parasites with average load of 71.38±32.26 per infected host. Myxozoans (97.55%) were clearly dominant group than chiliophorans (2.45%). The highest prevalence of parasitic infection was observed in the fishes of Mymensingh (100%) and lowest in Jashore (40%).The association of parasitic infection of H. mystusia (p=0.018), H. qadrii (p= 0.00044), H. a...

Preliminary Survey of External Parasites: Crustacean and Monogeneans of Commonly Catched Fish Species in Lake Hayke of Amhara Region2018 •
A cross study was conducted from November, 2015 to April, 2016 in Lake Lugo (Hayke), which is located in South WolloZone, northeast Ethiopia, with the aim of isolation and identifying the external parasites (crustacean and monogenean) from fresh water fish. A total of 124 randomly selected fishes comprising of 61 Oreochromis niloticus, 20 Clarias gariepinus and 43 Cyprinus carpio were examined for external parasites. The fish were examined thoroughly examined externally and sample of skin scraping and gills were taken for the presence of external parasite and lesion. From the total 124 fish species 23 (18.5%) fish species were infested with external parasite. From these infested fish species four external parasites which are three parasites of crustacean (Lerneaspp, Dolophusspp and Ergasilusspp) and one parasite of monogenean (Dactaylogyrusspp) were detected as the genes level. Prevalence of external parasites was higher in Clarias gariepinus (25%) followed by Cyprinus carpio (18.6%) and Oreochromis niloticus (18%) species. The statistical analysis showed that no statistically significant difference in among species, age and sex of fish (p>0.05). Based on this study crust aceans and monogeneans parasites have a great significance for the production of fish in the Hayke (Lake of Lugo) so it needs husbandry practice (water quality assessment and feed and feed delivery management), a serious control and preventive programs.
