Abstract
In the present study that was conducted between the period October 2006 – April 2007, fish species of whiting (Merlangius merlangus Nordmann, 1840), twaite shad (Alosa immaculata Bennett, 1835), turbot (Psetta maxima L., 1758) and picarel (Spicara smaris L., 1758) were collected from Sinop coasts of the Black Sea and investigated for metazoan parasites. At the end of this research study, it was determined that whiting, twaite shad and picarel had Hysterothylacium aduncum (Rudolphi, 1802), turbot had Bothriocephalus scorpii (Müller, 1776) and twaite shad had Livoneca punctata (Uljanin, 1872). Infestation/Infection prevalence (%) and mean intensity values according to host fish species were also determined and discussed.
