1-Monogenetic trematodes• Diseases of bad water quality
• Affect external surface of fish
• Affect freshwater and marine water by direct contact
• direct life cycle
• All are hermaphrodites
• the attachment occurs by haptor ( Opisthaptor- Prohaptor)
• They mainly fed on tissue debris and blood

A) Prevention
Prophylactic measurements. predisposing cause source of infection
1 -Quarantine and restriction of movement of fish.2 -Good water quality.
3 -Reduction of over crowding of fish.4 -Proper nutrition of fish .
5 -Periodical disinfection of ponds by 120 kg quick lime/
hectar .6 -Control of aquatic plants .
7 -Control of organic matter.8 -All utensils such as nets, buckets, aereators,
must be disinfected.9 -Regular examination of fish for parasites.

B) Treatment and control
Prophylactic spray of chemical agents starting at mid-April up to end of July as dipterex. Ammonia can reduce infection so can be used in ammonia tolerant fish as Japanese eel (40 ppm)
Chemotherapy1. Dipterex: prepare 50% solution in xylene and
apply it to the pond at a dilution of 0.8ppm. 2. Potassium permanganate 20ppm with 4%
Nacl3. Methylene blue, Malachite green formalin,
Ammonium hydroxide, masotene….etc

2- Hirudinea – leech – Annelid worm Parasites of fish,
amphibians and aquatic reptiles ( in both fresh and marine water)
blood suckling parasites affect body surface, fins, gill or mouth cavity.
Carried to the farm through contaminated water
Bisexual temporary parasites
![Page 36: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Leave after the meal searching for
shelterLeave for cocoon
deposition
Can be seen by naked eye (2-4 cm) and swim actively to reach the prey
Body formed from several segments and has 2 suckers( anterior contains mouth and posterior contains suckers for attachment)
They are temporary or semi permanent
![Page 37: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Etiology / susceptibility Class: Hirudinea
Phylum: AnnelidaSubphylum: Clitellataorder: Rhynchobdellida (Most important) 1) Family: Piscicolidae (Cylendrical
leech) – 4-8 cm 2) Family: Glossiphoniidae (flat leech)- 2-4 cm
![Page 38: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The identification of leeches depends on
1. Body shape2. Length of the
body3. Pigmentation
colour and pattern
4. Numbers and arrangement of the eyes
![Page 39: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
5- Crescent form pigments on the body and caudal suckers.
6- Arrangement of papillae or tubercles.
It is better to examine the leech in fresh and relaxed state
• We can use alcohol or menthols crystals for short time in a Petri dish before the change of pigment colors
![Page 40: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Male put sperms through spermatophore in female gonopore
Mating occures on or off the host fish
Fertilized egg will be attached to female body (within a special socket) or deposited on aquatic substrate (??) in the form of cocoons(1-5).
Off springs can survive for a week or more before their first blood meal
The period of nursing varies from 24 days – 4 months according to water temperature
After nursing leech need 3- 4 blood meals to reach maturity
Life cycle

Clinical signs and pathology
Leech as it is can be seen by naked eye
Site of affection appears well defined rounded and sometimes oozed blood
General sign of anemia especially in young fish ( thin body, emaciation, big head…)
HB content drop from 50 to 20%
RBCs count drop from 1.5 million to 300000/ml2.

Economic importance Affect all types of fish Young fishes are more seriously affected especially
that live in the bottom….lead to reduction in vitality and death ( so it will lead to great damage to hatcheries).
Mechanical damage to skin and scale pockets (sever epidermal erosions) due to suckers followed by Secondary bacterial or fungal invasions
Vector transmitter for haemoprotozoa Mechanical transmission of viral and bacterial
diseases Leech can suckle about 150 ml of blood within 2 days
leading to marked anemia Produce Hirudin enzyme that acts as anticoagulant
leading to oozing of blood from fish after leech leaving host
A predisposing cause for opportunistic pathogen Decrease growth rate Individual Mortalities

Treatment and control
Prophylactic: remove aquatic vegetations, apply net with small mesh size to prevent leech or gravels and stone entrance with water, summer drying season (chlorinated lime is able to destroy both live leech and cocoons),
Chemotherapy1. Dipterex: prepare 50% solution in xylene and apply it
to the pond at a dilution of 0.8 ppm. 2. Masotene: 0.5-1 ppm in fish pond but harmful to
zooplankton.3. Neguvon 1ppm for 5 days is effective against adult
leeches but not eggs4. We can use OPC or chlorine* Marine water leeches have very little trials for
treatment.

III- Copepodes – Parasitic crustacea
Many of crustacean parasite are lethal under certain circumstances, other depilating and other of major importance to fish culture and the fishing industry
It showed exoskeleton with jointed appendages and segmented body.
Affect mainly external surface of body. Many of parasitic copepods burrow into the flesh
and cannot be dislodged by chemical treatment Treatment is directed toward killing larval forms.
![Page 52: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Oviparous parasites with separate sex They have a complex life cycle which
involves mating of the parasites and attachment of the female to the fish with subsequent production of eggs which pass through several distinct larval stages.
The most important organisms are:1. Lernea2. Ergasilus.3. Argulus
![Page 53: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

3- Lerneosis - Anchor worm Are the most harmful parasite of
cultured fresh water fishes They most commonly found in warm
water fish The destructive activity of lernea is
due to its relatively large size and its mode of attachment and feeding
![Page 55: dr Khaled selim lecture 2011](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022405/5550859ab4c9051e5b8b49cc/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
The are long slender copepod give the appearance of soft strikes with two
eggs sacs attached at the end of the body the head is buried in the flesh by large horn-
like appendages ]anchors} that help in identification of the parasite

•They can cause significant morbidity and mortality• direct tissue damage• opportunistic bacteria such as Aeromonas or Pseudomonas sometimes infect these damaged areas leading to skin ulcers and gill disease. • It is also believed that the stylus may occasionally ‘inject’ viruses and bacteria into the fish.• all these lead to severe stress, which often leads to secondary parasite infestations such as white-spot and Costia.

1. Chemicals interrupt life cyclea chitin inhibitor drugs such as Dimilin
will stop the juveniles developing as they moult their exoskeleton, most of the results have shown these compounds such as Lufenuron and Diflubenzuron to be entirely nontoxic to fish or other animals.
2. The most common treatments are organophosphates, Masoten and Malathion. Using three treatments over the estimated life cycle of the parasite. At typical summer pond temperatures of 20ºC or higher, treatments at 10-day intervals will kill existing adults and juveniles as well as emerging juveniles.
3. In small number reared fish mechanical removal of the parasites and dip in disinfectant (Potassium permanganate) and antibacterial drugs
4. Potassium permanganate is useful in Ergasilus

1- Digenetic trematod• Trematodes that have a complex life cycle need one or more host• Most digenetic trematodes are not a serious threat to fish health; however, their presence often renders the fish undesirable by consumers.• There are 2 main groups1.Fish act as intermediate host: fish contain metacercaria or encysted metacercaria until will be eaten by final host such as:
a- Diplostomum spathaceum, parasitic cataract, eye fluke b- Clinostomum species, yellow grub disease c- Apophilus donicus, black spot disease2.Fish act as a final host: fish contain adult parasite and produce egg that leave fish to complete life cycle.

Epizootiology•The usual route of transmission from snail to host fish is through water and active penetration of the cercria• Very rare the transmission is possible by fish feeding on snails containing cercariae.• This parasite lodges itself in the eye of a fish and induces cataract formation (from it's metabolic waste) this in turn increases predation on intermediate fish, because the fish is less able to get away from predator due to its new vision handicap.

1. Variable sized black spots (1 to 3 mm) in the skin, tail base, fins, and musculature.
• The metacercariae of the black grub become encapsulated by host tissue
• melanophores surround the outer layers• the dark color of the embedded grub causes
affected fish to have a “peppered” appearance2- Until the black grubs become encapsulated in the
host, the host loses lipids (fats) and their oxygen requirements increase.
• Heavily infected cold water fish often enter the winter months in lipid depleted (low fat) state; consequently, these fish have few energy reserves to last over winter and that would affect their ability to survive.

1. These parasites normally do not kill fish except in case of vital organ, but may reduce the growth rate if heavily infested.2. The presence of digenetic trematodes often renders the fish undesirable by consumers.3. It leads to sporadic mortalities4. Fish will be easily predated by enemy5. Proper cleaning and cooking will render the parasite harmless to man.

• These tiny worms lay eggs that become trapped in the capillary beds of the gills and other organs where they developed into meracidia • The ciliate miracidia burst from the gill to be eaten by the operculated snail, the only intermediat host.• Cercaria emerge from the snail and penetrate fish to complete the life cycle.

Clinical sign and pathology1. Acute form occurs when heavy numbers of the parasites present in brachial BVS (Occlusion, thrombosis, rupture and necrosis) leading to respiratory manifestation and massive mortalities.
2. subacute form occures when heavy numbers of the parasites present in kidney Bvs (Glomerular occlusion- chronic nephritis) leading to general symptoms of ascites
3. Chronic form occures when small numbers of the parasites scattered in the different body organs leading to emaciation and anemia.

Prevention and controlPrevention and control All control measurements to
metacercaria are difficult because of the complexity of the life cycle, shortage of blood supply and disease condition.
There is no known control of digenetic trematodes in ponds, other than the possible control of the snails and the birds

Eggs discharged from gravid proglottids in the small intestine of final host are passed in the feces.
The egg hatches in fresh water to produce a ciliated coracidium which needs to be ingested by a water flea (Cyclops) where it develops into a procercoid larva.
When infected Cyclops are ingested by the freshwater fish, the procercoid larva penetrates the intestinal wall and develops into a plerocercoid larva
Man and other animals are infected by eating uncooked fish, mature into adult worms in 3 to 5 weeks.

Clinical signs
1. Plerocercoids are found encysted or lying in the viscera and musculature of marine and fresh water fishes.
2. migrating larvae can cause much damage with adhesions, sterility and even mortality
3. The presence of this cestode affect the market value of fish.

Nematodes of fish It is cylendrical parasites with separate sex Either oviparous or viviparous Fish may be act as a final host or
intermediate host or both at the same time The larval form in fish either uncapsulated
or capsulated by host CT When fish act as final host the mature
parasite will be found in the intestine When fish act as IH the parasite will be
found in the abdominal cavity or musculature

When fish act as IH it will be more dangerous than FH where it will usually affect a vital organ not intestine as well they infect the tissue and cause tissue damage during its migration
Nematodes are more noticeable than other endoparasites due to their cuticle are more resistant to the post mortem autolytic enzyme in the dead fish and remain alive.
The most common nematodes are1.Contracaecum2.Amplicaecum3.Anasakis
