Abstract
Three monogenean parasites species were extracted from 405 fish specimens, belonging to three species namely: Aspius vorax, (Shilleg), Cyprinus carpio, (Common carp) and Liza abu, (Kishni), that were collected from the Hilla river (at Babylon province). These monogeneans are: Dactylogyrus ersinensis, Gyrodactylus menschikowi and Gyrodactylus derjavini. Prevalence and mean intensity was studied. In this study all these parasites are redescribed and reported for the first time from Iraqian freshwater fishes.
