Ichthyophonosis is a disease caused by the mesomycetozoean parasite Ichthyophonus hoferi that affects a variety of fish species, including rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum. This disease is characterized by granulomatous lesions and necrosis in various organs, which can have severe impacts on the health and welfare of the fish. Ichthyophonosis has been found in several parts of the world, including Europe, and is a significant concern in the aquaculture industry and for populations of wild marine fishes. The rainbow trout is a widely cultured salmonid species in many countries, including Serbia. Although the presence of I. hoferi in rainbow trout has been reported in several countries, it has never been documented in Serbia. In this article, we report the first case of ichthyophonosis in rainbow trout in Serbia.
类结节虫病是一种由 Mesomycetozoean 寄生虫 Ichthyophonus hoferi 引起的疾病，影响包括虹鳟鱼 Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum 在内的多种鱼类。这种疾病的特征是在各种器官中形成肉芽肿和坏死，这可能对鱼类的健康和福利产生严重影响。类结节虫病已在世界多个地区发现，包括欧洲，并且是水产养殖行业和野生海洋鱼类种群的一个重大关注点。虹鳟鱼是许多国家（包括塞尔维亚）广泛养殖的鲑鱼品种。尽管在多个国家都有报道称虹鳟鱼体内存在 I. hoferi，但在塞尔维亚从未有过相关记录。在本文中，我们报告了塞尔维亚首例虹鳟鱼类结节虫病病例。
