The present investigation deals with the prevalence of three cestode parasites viz. Lytocestus sp., Proteocephalus sp. and Gangesia sp. collected from the intestine of a freshwater fish Channa punctatus in different blocks of Meerut region (U.P.) India during June, 2014 to May, 2015. A total of 125 parasites were collected throughout theyear. The high incidence of infection of all these species Lytocestus sp., Proteocephalus sp., Gangesia sp. was recorded in summer season (70.83%, 77.27% abd 72 % respectively) followed by winter season (63.63%, 57.89% abd 52.38% respectively) whereas infection was low in monsoon season (36.84%, 27.78% abd 23.52% respectively). The present study clearly indicates that the intensity of infection throughout the year was found highest in summer season followed by winter and lowest in monsoon. Findings show that beginning of the breeding period, feeding habitat, presence of intermediate host and environmental factors are influencing the seasonality of cestode parasitic infection.

The present investigation deals with the prevalence of infection of cestode, Pseudoinverta oraiensis19 parasitizing Clarias batrachus from Bundelkhand Region (U.P.) India. The studies were recorded from different sampling stations of Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh. For this study 360 fresh water fish, Clarias batrachus were examined. The incidence of infection, monsoon season (17.50%) followed by winter season (20.00%) whereas high in summer season (30.00%).

The present investigation deals with the incidence of infection of cestode, Breviscolex hinotaensis 18 parasitizing Clarias batrachus from Bundelkhand Region (M.P.) India. The incidence of infection were recorded in winter season (28.33%) followed by monsoon season (26.66%) whereas low in summer season (21.66%).

Present paper deals with study of cestode parasites of genus Circumoncobothrium from fresh water fish Clarius batracus at Savitri river, (Dapoli) for the percentages of infection occurance during summer season,minimum during winter and tolarate during rainy season.The parasite mainly infected the intestine of host and fed on nutrients from digested food. It completed its life cycle in the intestine of host. By camparing different characters of it to identify that the species is new

Toxic effects of carbamate pesticide cartriz on the haematological characters in a facultative air breathing fish, Channa punctatus has been investigated in the present study. The intoxication of pesticide exhibited a significant decrease in RBC count, Haemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume (PCV) and oxygen carrying capacity of blood, whereas a progressive rise in total leucocyte count (TLC) and clotting time was observed in varying period of intoxication, revealing toxic nature of the agro chemical.

Activity of a few biomarkers have been investigated on fresh water fish, Channa punctatus exposed to three sub – lethal concentrations of dimethoate(1/5, 1/10 and 1/15 of 96hrs LC50 values). The alteration in protein contents of liver, gill and muscle were investigated. The protein levels were found to be depleted in all the tissues after exposure to dimethoate over the control.All the organs showed the significant difference between control and exposed groups in all the estimated parameters on long exposure. The present study considers biochemical parameters as important biomarkers in determining the level of toxicity caused by the pesticide Dimethoate. Therefore the detailed results and observations are summarized in the present investigations.
