Abstract

This study aims to determine the endoparasitic fauna of the fish species caught in Menzelet Dam Lake in Kahramanmaraş, Turkey. Cyprinus carpio, Barbus rajanorum, Alburnus sp., Capoeta angorae , Capoeta barroisi, Leuciscus cephalus and Luciobarbus pectoralis caught in the Dam Lake were examined in terms of internal parasites. Neoechinorhynchus rutili and Ligula intestinalis endoparasites were found. Parasites were stained, and pictures were taken under a microscope. The distribution of parasites is presented according to ecological terms.
