Abstract

A total of 958 specimens of farmed common carp Cyprinus carpio from eight of the most significant and largest cyprinid aquaculture facilities in Macedonia (pond and cage culture systems) were examined for parasitological investigation for three years. The following parasite species of the genus Dactylogyrus were identified: Dactylogyrus extensus, Dactylogyrus minutus and Dactylogyrus anchoratus. The highest prevalence was determined for D. extensus (38.8%), followed by D. minutus (7.9%) and D. anchoratus (2.8%). The highest mean intensity was determined for D. extensus (6.2), followed by D. minutus (4.7) and D. anchoratus (3.8). By seasons, the highest prevalence (16.5%) was recorded for D. extensus in winter, while the lowest (0.6%) for D. minutus in autumn. The highest mean intensity (8.0) was also determined for D. extensus in winter, and the
lowest (1.9) for D. minutus in spring.
