| Popis | Two surveys on different metazoan parasites is provided. First is concerning with composition and structure of metazoan parasites in selected gobiid fish (Gobiidae) in Northern Adriatic (Croatia). Basic epidemiological data are known for 364 specimens of the following six gobiid species from the two seasons in 2014: Buenia affinis, Gobius auratus, G. niger, G. roulei, G. vittatus and Pomatoschistus marmoratus. Figure 1 shows comparison of parasite numbers in two seasons (spring and autumn). Second survey is concerning with composition and structure of metazoan parasites in notothenioid fish (Nototheniidae) in Prince Gustav Channel (Weddell Sea, Antarctica). Basic epidemiological data are stated for 102 specimens of the following six notothenioid fish species from the Czech Antarctic expedition in 2014: Trematomus hansoni, T. bernacchii, T. newnesi, Notothenia coriiceps, Parachaenichthys charcoti, Pagothenia borchgrevinki (Fig. 2). All host individuals were infected with at least one parasite taxa. Mean total parasite abundance across the hosts was 76. The most parasitized host was Notothenia coriiceps with the mean parasite abundance of 117. Preliminary epidemiological data were already published. Now we are working on determination of parasites from Antarctica and Croatia. |
