Abstract

A study of the parasitic fauna of the common ruff from Tsipo-Tsipikanskiye lakes (Baunt and Large Kapylushi) has made it possible to identify 19 species, including 12 in the first Lake Baunt and 15 in the second Lake Large Kapylushi. A study of the parasitic fauna of the common ruff in Lake Baunt has been carried out for the first time. Ten species of parasites (ciliates Apiosoma campanulatum and Trichodina sp., monogeneans Dactylogyrus hemiamphibothrium and Gyrodactylus sp., cestodes Cyathocephalus truncatus and Proteocephalus cernuae, trematodes Diplostomum volvens and Tylodelphys clavata, the nematode Raphidascaris acus, and acantocephalan Pseudoechinorynchus borealis) have been recorded in the common ruff from Tsipo-Tsipikanskiye lakes for the first time.
