Abstract

The article proposes to consider a dynamic model of parasitic invasion of fish of the family Cyprinidae by a parasite of the genus Bothriocephalus. The model is built in the MAEcoS program and based on the example of a small lake in the south of Western Siberia. The author describes studies of the parasitic infestation of common carp from one to two years old in pasture rearing during one season. The parasite is taken into account in the model by a value proportional to the number of infected fishes and is described by a function with a lagging argument. The transition of uninfected fish to infected fish, mortality and the influence of predators are taken into account. This study was conducted for the first time.
