The list of hosts with the data on their occurrence in different areas of the Volga River basin is provided for each parasite species. The data on the parasites from 46 fish species are presented. The checklist includes 139 species and 6 taxa of subspecific rank. 9 species (Dactylogyrus aristichthys, D. ctenopharyngodonis, D. hypophthalmichthys, D. lamellatus, D. nobilis, D. suchengtaii, Pseudodactylogyrus bini, P. microrchis, and Eudiplozoon nipponicum) were introduced into the Volga River basin accidentally together with the Far Eastern fish species during the process of their naturalization. |
