Abstract EN
Seven fish species were collected from the drainage network at Al-Madaen region, south of Baghdad with the aid of a cast net during the period from March to August 1993.
These fishes were infected with 22 parasite species (seven sporozoans, three ciliated protozoans, seven monogeneans, two nematodes, one acanthocephalan and two crustaceans) and one fungus species.
Among such parasites, Chloromyxum wardi and Cystidicola sp.
are reported here for the first time in Iraq.
In addition, 11 new host records are added to the list of parasites of fishes of Iraq
