“…Dactylogyrus regius n. sp. most closely resembles D. elegantis (not included in our phylogenetic analyses), a parasite of C. knerii , C. nasus and C. regium (Stojanovski et al ., 2004; Koyun, 2011; Benovics et al ., 2018) in the comparative morphology of their haptoral structures. In both species, the anchors possess an evenly curved shaft and point (sabre-shaped type), straight to a broadly V-shaped dorsal bar with an anteromedial depression, and an inverted T-shaped ventral bar.…”

The freshwaters of Iraq harbour a high diversity of endemic and phylogenetically unique species. One of the most diversified fish groups in this region is cyprinoids, and although their distribution is relatively well known, their monogenean parasites have only rarely been investigated. Herein, we applied an integrative approach, combining morphology with molecular data, to assess the diversity and phylogeny of cyprinoid-associated monogenean parasites. A total of 33 monogenean species were collected and identified from 13 endemic cyprinoid species. The highest species diversity was recorded for Dactylogyrus (Dactylogyridae, 16 species) and Gyrodactylus (Gyrodactylidae, 12 species). Four species of Dactylogyrus and 12 species of Gyrodactylus were identified as new to science and described. Two other genera, Dogielius (Dactylogyridae) and Paradiplozoon (Diplozoidae), were represented only by 4 and 1 species, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses of the Dactylogyrus and Gyrodactylus species revealed that the local congeners do not form a monophyletic group and are phylogenetically closely related to species from other regions (i.e. Europe, North Africa and Eastern Asia). These findings support the assumption that the Middle East served as an important historical crossroads for the interchange of fauna between these 3 geographic regions.

Murat River is the most important tributary of the Euphrates River, which has the highest water potential in Turkey. The seasonal variation of water quality parameters and water quality status of Murat River were determined according to the "Regulation on Surface Water Quality Management" criteria. 19 different parameters were measured in water samples taken from four different stations during the research. These parameters were temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, total hardness, total alkalinity, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), total phosphorus, fluoride, chloride, nitrite, nitrate, ammonium, sulfate, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a). According to "Regulation on Surface Water Quality Management", physical and chemical analysis data showed that Murat River waters had "first-class water quality" in terms of temperature, dissolved oxygen, BOD, total phosphorus, fluoride, chloride, nitrate, ammonium, sulfate, "third-class water quality" for sodium, pH and "fourth class water quality" for nitrite. The electrical conductivity and alkalinity values were within normal limits and as "medium-hard" water. Considering all the results, it has been evaluated that there is no significant pollution problem in the Murat River.
