Abstract: In this study, endohelminth parasite species were investigated in 49
Cobitis simplicispinna from Pinarbaşi spring water, Asia Minor between September 2009 and October 2011. Two endohelminth parasite species were determined in intestinal lumen of the host fishes. 116 number Crowcrocoecum skrjabini (%58, 4.0±3.7) and 198 Acanthocephala samples (%86, 4.6±3.5) were found. Among these species,
Crowcrocoecum skrjabini is a new records for endohelminth parasite fauna of
Cobitis simplicispinna from Asia Minor. Thus, a new locality has been added to geographical distributions of the parasite species. It was contributed to revealing the endohelminth parasitic fauna of
Cobitis simplicispinna from the study area.
