Abstract
In this study, the helminth fauna of Capoeta erhani which were caught in Menzelet Dam Lake (Kahramanmaraş) and Küçürge stream (Seyhan) has been analyzed and 140 of them has been examined throughout that study during March 2013-February 2014. As a result, two distinct parasites called Dactylogyrus lencorani Mikailov, 1974 and Neoechinorhynchus zabensis Amin, Abdullah & Mhaisen, 2003 has been defined. It has been found out that N. zabensis 7653 of which was determined in sampled individuals in every season was more dominant than D. lencorani 59 of which was determined in just spring. Mean intensity, total number, abundance and prevalence of N. zabensis which is dominant both in individuals that was caught by electro shocker in Küçürge stream in spring and in those that was caught by trammel net in Menzelet Dam Lake in every season has been determined according to parameters of sex, age, size of host and season.
Özet
Bu çalışmada, Menzelet Baraj Gölü (Kahramanmaraş) ve Küçürge Deresinde (Adana) avlanan Capoeta erhani, Turan, Kottelat & Ekmekçi, 2008‘nin helmint faunası araştırılmıştır. Buna göre Mart 2013-Şubat 2014’deki araştırma süresince mevsimsel olarak toplam 140 balık örneği muayene edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda konak balıkta iki parazit tanımlanmıştır. Bu parazitler Dactylogyrus lencorani, Mikailov, 1974 ve Neoechinorhynchus zabensis Amin, Abdullah & Mhaisen, 2003 türleridir. Her mevsimde örneklenen balık örneklerinde 7653 adet olarak tespit edilen N. zabensis’in sadece ilkbahar mevsiminde 59 adet olarak tespit edilen D. Lencorani’ye göre daha baskın olduğu görülmüştür. Gerek ilkbaharda elektroşokerle Küçürge Deresinde ve gerekse Menzelet Baraj Gölünden fanyalı ağlarla dört mevsimde avlanan konak balıklarda baskın parazit olan N. zabensis türünün mevsim, cinsiyet, yaş ve boy değişkenlerine göre; yaygınlık, ortalama yoğunluk, bolluk ve toplam parazit sayıları belirlenmiştir.
