Parasite Fauna of Chinese Sleeper Perccottus glenii Dybowski, 1877 (Actinopterygii, Odontobutidae) in the Point of the Primary Introduction of the Host

Аннотация

A parasitological examination of the Chinese sleeper Perccottus glenii was carried out in the water bodies of St. Petersburg and its environs. Twenty-seven parasite species/taxa have been recorded. Host-specific heteroxenous parasites of the Chinese sleeper were not found; this corresponds to the origin of the local populations of this fish from the aquarium-released specimens.
