| Abstract | Nematodes are usually considered the most economically important helminth parasites of fishes in the world (Dick and Choudhury, 1995). Most adult nematodes are found in the intestine of fish, but larval stages are sometimes found in the flesh and viscera which cause disease and economical loses. It is also the larval stages which are infective to humans and which have the greatest impact on consumer acceptance of fish as a source of protein (Dick and Choudhury, 1995; Moravec, 1994). Members of the family Anisakidae parasitise are fish, mammals, birds and reptiles (Moravec, 1994; Zhu et al., 1998). Anisakids are among most common nematodes of fish. They cause patholagical symptoms and mortalities, and reduce the commercial value of fish (Dick and Choudhury, 1995). Larval and adult anisakids infect freshwater fishes (Cyprinidae, Ictaluridae, contrarchidae, percidae and salmonidae) (Hoffman, 1998; Ekingen, 1983).
