Parasite assemblages of European bitterling (Rhodeus amarus), composition and effects of habitat type and host body size
Original language description
Parasite community composition of European bitterling (Rhodeus amarus) was investigated in 16 different localities from four European sea drainages during 1998?2007. A total of 41 species of metazoan parasites was identified. The specialist Gyrodactylusrhodei was the most widely distributed and one of the most prevalent species. The parasite community of European bitterling was characterised by the dominance of generalists and parasites with autogenic life cycles. The rare occurrence of strictly endoparasitic species reflected the specific diet of the fish host. The character of the habitat significantly affected the parasite assemblages of bitterling. The greatest similarity was associated with lentic habitats. Juvenile bitterling from 8 mm in lengthupwards were colonised by metazoan parasites, firstly by the monogenean G. rhodei. Host body size was positively correlated with parasite species richness, but the variability explained by length was low.

Czech description
Parazitofauna hořavky duhové Rhodeus amarus byla sledována na 16 lokalitách 4 evropských úmoří během 1998-2007. Celkem nalezeno 41 druhů, nejvíce rozšířený byl specialista G. rhodei. Společenstvo parazitů bylo charakteristické dominancí generalistů a autogenních parazitů. Ojedinělá přítomnost striktních endoparazitů byla odrazem potravní strategie hostitele. Prostředí významně ovlivnilo složení společenstva parazitů, nejpodobnější si byly lentické habitaty. Juvenilní hořavky byly parazitovány od 8 mm délky těla, nejdříve G. rhodei. Velikost těla pozitivně korelovala s druhovou bohatostí parazitů, ale variabilita vysvětlená velikostí těla byla nízká.
