Some of fishes showed paleness in gills and showed a mosaic appearance on the gills. The percentage of Caligus sp. was recorded in M. cephalus (7.94%) , (11.65%) in M. capitus and (0%) in M. seheli. Seasonal prevalence and Light and Scanning Electron Microscopic identification have been carried out | ||||
