Unusual structure of the intrahepatic biliary system of the grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) and silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix)

The author has carried out a retrospective analysis of environmental data about the Azov limans of the Krasnodar Krai. The increasing liman deterioration leading to their complete disappearance has been noted. Assessment of the priority of liman fish economy has been given. In terms of biological melioration there have been offered measures on stocking limans with herbivorous fish species of different age: grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella and white silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix , and determined necessary amounts of yearly stocking of the Azov limans. Modern data on the overgrowth in the water area of the Azov limans by higher aquatic vegetation have been presented in the context of the main groups of limans. The groups of limans were graded according to the priority of conducting biological melioration measures in them and practical recommendations were given on the quantity and places of stocking of the Azov limans grass carp and white silver carp depending on the degree of overgrowth. The necessity of using the funds received as compensation for the harm to water biological resources in the Krasnodar Krai for the artificial reproduction of grass carp and white silver carp and their introduction into the Azov limans has been substantiated. The article shows that stocking limans with herberous fish species will both ensure ameliorative effect and increase amount of fish commercial output.

The Common

Literature reviews of all references concerning the parasitic fauna of fishes in fish farms of Babylon province, middle of Iraq, showed that a total of 92 valid parasite species are so far known from the common carp (Cyprinus carpio), the grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), and the silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) as well as from three freshwater fish species (Carassius auratus,Liza abu, andHeteropneustes fossilis) which were found in some fish farms of the same province. The parasitic fauna included one mastigophoran, three apicomplexans, 13 ciliophorans, five myxozoans, five trematodes, 45 monogeneans, five cestodes, three nematodes, two acanthocephalans, nine arthropods, and one mollusc. The common carp was found to harbour 81 species of parasites, the grass carp 30 species, the silver carp 28 species,L. abu13 species,C. auratusone species, andH. fossilisone species. A host-parasite list for each fish species was also provided.
