Resumo(s)
Gobio lozanoi, from the River Febros northern Portugal, contained female Philometra ovata in
the body cavity causing abdominal swelling. A mild chronic inflammation and some tissue
necrosis were observed in infected fish. Significant correlations were found between occurrence
of infection and host length, and gonado-somatic index; and between intensity of infection and
condition factor.
