Parasite communities of freshwater fish under flood conditions
Original language description
The parasite communities of the freshwater fish species roach, bitterling and perch were investigated during a major flood. Differences in parasite community structure due to changes in the host environment were expected. We therefore tested for differences in parasite species abundance and diversity as a consequence of the flood. Potential changes in parasite community structure due to seasonal influences were alco considered. We found differences in the composition of parasite species and the proportion of ecto-and endoparasites in the three hos species. The parasite community of roach was richer in species than those of perch and bitterling. Roach harboured more ectoparasite than endoparasite species. Parasite communities of both perch and bitterling were richer in endoparasite species and had a lower number of ectoparasite species. Parasite communities of the three different hos species responded in different ways to environmental change. Considering all parasite species, no effect
