Fish diseases have become one of the problems that constrain the healthy development of aquaculture. Among them,fish parasitic diseases have also caused some losses to the aquaculture industry. In this paper,17 species of fish parasites in Huaihua area,belonging to 15 genera in 13 families of 13 orders,are reviewed. In particular,the 10 kinds of fish parasitic diseases that are more harmful to farmed fishes are described in detail in order to provide a basis for the prevention of fish diseases in the future.展开更多
