Abstract
The dynamics of infection of anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus Linnaeus, 1758 with nematode parasite Hysterothylacium aduncum Rudolphi, 1802 in the Sea of Azov during the summer seasons of 2015 and 2017-2020 and autumn seasons of 2017-2020 is analyzed. To specify the scheme of infestation, the division of nematodes into living and degenerating ones was used. The degenerating specimens were attributed to three stages of destruction. The infection rate was estimated by using of the common parasitological indices (prevalence of infection, intensity values, abundance of larvae). Statistical analysis of data obtained in the process of the research was conducted using Spearman’s rank correlation.
