“…The ability to successfully colonize new geographical regions has been facilitated by its simple, two-host life cycle (involving common copepod species as an intermediate host) and euryxenous host specificity (very wide range of suitable fish hosts). This has led to the transmission and establishment of B. acheilognathi to many new host species in areas where it has been introduced (Scholz 1999;Salgado-Maldonado and Pineda-Lopez 2003). Once established it may endanger native fish populations, including ecologically sensitive species and fishes that are phylogenetically unrelated to those in which it was introduced (Font and Tate 1994;Dove and Fletcher 2000).…”

“…Several new parasite species have spread in Europe as a consequence of fish transfers (see, e.g., Scholz & Cappelaro 1993;Scholz 1999;Kirk 2003;Oros et al 2004), including the specific parasite of P. glenii -Nippotaenia mogurndae Yamaguti et Miyata, 1940 (Cestoda: Nippotaeniidea), which have become widely distributed in East Slovakia (Košuthová et al 2004(Košuthová et al , 2008.…”

Abstract:Freshwater fishes recorded in the territory of Slovakia include 95 fish species. As many as one third of these are allochthonous fish species belonging to 14 families, among which several have not occurred in Slovakia recently. Historically, there were three main periods of introduction: the first is the beginning of the 20 th century, the second includes two decades between 1955 and 1975 and the third period is from the year 1990 up to the present time. The origins of the exotic species seen in Slovakia are the four continents -Africa (3), North America (7), Central America (3), and Asia (13) and ten of them are from different regions in Europe. The purpose of intentional introductions of non-native species was to occupy vacant ecological niches in the ecosystems reshaped by human activities, fish stocking, angling or fish farming. Some of these species spread from their original ranges or they penetrated spontaneously from the adjacent countries via the river network system. At the present time, 76 fish species in total form populations in Slovakia. There are 54 autochthonous and 22 allochthonous species, 14 of them are exotic fishes. The invasive characters in 13 fish species were considered, the recent native/total fish ratio is 0.71.

“…Neither the origin of this parasite nor its vector route to Europe are known for certain. It seems most probable that it was introduced with Japanese eels from either Taiwan (Køie 1991) or in re-exported European eels from Japan, or other East Asian countries (China or Taiwan) (Scholz 1999). In Europe, A. crassus has turned out to be a typical invasive species that rapidly attacked cultivated and natural European eel populations (Kirk 2003, Taraschewski 2006.…”

Anguillicola crassus Kuwahara, Niimi et Itagaki, 1974 is an Asian parasitic nematode that was introduced to Europe and inhabits the swim bladder of eels. In the 2002-2005 period, 237 eels, Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus, 1758), from Lake Wdzydze were examined for the occurrence of the nematode. 79.3% of the fish were infected, at a mean intensity of 7.2 nematodes per fish. Morphological measurements of the observed A. crassus are presented. This is the first published report of A. crassus in eels from Lake Wdzydze.
