Abstract
The authors investigated aquatic insects (32 species) as vectors of aquatic zoosporic fungi parasitic on fishes in six bodies of water of various trophic state. A total of 127 zoosporic fungus species were noted, with predominance by the Oomycetes (99) and Chytridiomycetes species (24). Out of these 127 species, 28 are known as parasites or necrotrophs of fishes.
