Abstract
Physiochemical parameters revealed that the prevalence of cestode parasite increase according to change the quality of water. In the Present study, freshwater fishes from Ghodazari Dam infected with cestode parasite were recorded high incidence of cestode infection in all these host were recorded high prevalence of cestode infection in April month and it was 38.46%, in March month 30.43% and followed by Feb 20.83% and also least in month of January 2024 respectively. These results clearly showed that infection of cestode mostly lowest in winter month and highest in summer month. The present investigation was carried out in freshwater fishes from Somthana dam which Mastacembalus armatus, Channa punctatus (Bloch) and Wallago attu (Bleaker, 1857) collected from Ghodazari dam. Among freshwater fishes were contaminated with cestode parasite during dissection of fishes. Three species were detected viz. Circumonchobothria sp. Gangasia sp. and Senga sp.
