Özet
This study aimed to assess the health status of grey mullet Mugil cephalus by means of relative condition factor under the coexisting parasite groups within seasons. Fish were captured monthly in the Lower Kızılırmak Delta in Samsun, Turkey, from December 2011 to November 2012. A total of five taxonomic groups containing 13 parasite species were constituted: Trichodina (Trichodina puytoraci, T. lepsii), Monogenea (Ligophorus cephali, L. mediterraneus, Gyrodactylus sp., Microcotyle mugilis), Digenea (Ascocotyle (Phagicola) longa, Diplostomum spathaceum, Tylodelphys clavata, Posthodiplostomum sp., Haplosplanchnus pachysomus), Acanthocephala (Neoechinorhynchus agilis) and Copepoda (Ergasilus lizae). Only one mullet was not parasitized and 13.8%, 36.3%, 29.2%, 16.2% and 4.5% were infected by one, two, three, four and five parasite groups respectively. Health assessment of mullets was …
