Abstract

This study was carried out on a young European Shag ( Phalacrocorax aristotelis ) caught in the sea in Akçay, Balıkesir, inAugust 2015. The lice collected from the European Shag were put into 70% alcohol solution and were mounted to slides with Canadabalsam after being made transparent in 10% potassium hydroxide. The liceEidmanniella pellucidaandPectinopygus brevicornisweredetermined as a result of the microscopic examination of the 54 louse specimens. This study is the first for the louse species related tothe European Shag in Turkey. Additionally, the genusEidmanniellaand the speciesEidmanniella pellucidaandPectinopygus brevicornis are reported for the first time from Turkey.
