Abstract:
Identification and classification of aquatic parasites are more important by the day. Aquaculture development are
faced with parasites previously "not pathogenic in normal conditions, but under certain conditions bacame
diseases and have caused heavy losses to the aquaculture farms. The results of these studies recognize the
importance of parasites in fish production has clear economic value. Before any action for economic aquatic
breeding the parasites that can infect the fish have been identified and methods of control will be drawn. The
current project is a part (the fishes) of the project Parasitology Museum in the Faculty of Veterinary medicine of
Tehran University.
In the first phase of the project, it was planned the fish parasites from different regions of the country were
collected and the Iranian Fish Parasites Data Base has also set up.
Required experts and various specialties were organized for implementation an recognation of the collected
parasitese. The province executive and coordination necessary and the methods of sampling were discussed
after a day of training workshop was held at the Faculty of Veterinary medicine of Tehran University.
Due to the lack of funds needed to coordinate the implementation, it was conducted that the parasite specimens
collected from other projects. In the first phase of projects 261 parasites various have been sent. Collected
samples received a temporary code and announced. In the laboratory the specimens categoried and the shape
designed and finally the consultants send the final identification of the parasites. Posted parasites according to
the latest international standards are maintained. Each parasite has a unique code that represents the name of the
sender, verification of the final consultant, host and fishing region.
Simultaneously, reported fish parasites from 1327 AD (1949 AD) were collected to create a database, they
classified to be placed on the site inPersian and English. Fish parasites that have been reported are available in
four types: final report of the research projects conducted at research centers and universities, student theses,
abstracts published in scientific conferences and finally "published in national and international research
journals.
“Iranian fish parasitesd database” included: Founders and Pioneers Monument, Iranian fish parasite fauna,
History, Search, Resources, Executive Committee, links, News. Researchers can search through the five “key
words”: the name of the parasite, the parasite class branch, region or provincial fishing, infected of host organ.
After achieving the desired list of parasites, descriptions, and specifications can be observe. The resource section
lists some of the articles published and will be visible as a “pdf”.
