Abstract

Three new and seven known species of trichodinid ectoparasites (Ciliophora: Peritricha) were identified from cichlid and cyprinid fishes collected from fish ponds, natural and man-made lakes, rivers and streams in South Africa and Israel. The new species described are: Trichodina centrostrigata n.sp., T. minuta n.sp. and Tripartiella cichlidarum n.sp. The known species, of which comparative descriptions are given and intraspecific variability discussed, are: Trichodina acuta Lom, 1961, T. heterodentata Duncan, 1977, T. mutabilis Kazubski & Migala, 1968, T. nigra Lom, 1960, T. pediculus Ehrenberg, 1838, T. reticulata Hirschmann & Partsch, 1955 and Trichodinella epizootica (Raabe, 1950). ac]19820916
