The parasite fauna of alien fish species living in the new habitats has rarely been investigated and there is still poor information about this topic.
This research not only provides a thorough list of parasite taxa found in non-indigenous fish species in Turkey, but it highlights the risk of infection for both native and alien ichthyofauna.
With respect of native range, exotic fishes imported into Turkey have been found to be hosts for parasities from Eurasian, Asian, and North American origins, respectively.
