In pike-perches 20 species of parasites were stated: Protozoa (1), Monogenea (1), Cestoda (2), Trematoda (8), Nematoda (3), Acanthocephala (2), Hirudinea (1) and Crustacea (2). The high extent and intensity of parasitation Bunodera luciopercae in pike-perches of the Oder Bay are striking, a fact which may inhibit their growth and development. Parasitological investigation (infestation of pike-perch with Brachyphallus crenatus and Anisakis spec. larv.) has proved that about 75% of pike-perch migrate between the areas of the Peenestrom and the Bay of Greifswald. The high extent of Achtheres percarum infestation of fish causes serious damage to the gill filaments in a number of cases. The studies carried out to date have shown that parasite infestation of pike-perch has no negative effect on its edibility.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007865	Leeches	Annelids of the class Hirudinea. Some species, the bloodsuckers, may become temporarily parasitic upon animals, including man. Medicinal leeches (HIRUDO MEDICINALIS) have been used therapeutically for drawing blood since ancient times.	Hirudinea,Hirudineas,Leeche

D010272	Parasitic Diseases	Infections or infestations with PARASITES. They are often contracted through contact with an intermediate vector, but may occur as the result of direct exposure.
