Abstract
Various parasites found in three cyprinid fish species from the same reservoir were subject to a comparative analysis. The parasitic fauna studied was found to be very diversified, both quantitatively and qualitatively. The studies presented attempt to apply parasitologic data to explaining taxonomic bonds between the three fish species.
