Sažetak
This paper presents the first finding of Dermocystidium sp. in Croatia. The species was found on a fish farm, in broodstock of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). The localisation of the hyphae and morphological characteristics of spores confirms that the species is identical with Dermocystidium sp. described by Novotny & Smolova (2006). Hyphae were 109 ± ; 44 μ m (mean ± ; SD) wide, with 4.8 ± ; 1.3 μ m thick homogeneous walls. Mature and immature spores measured 8.3 ± ; 1.5 μ m and 5.1 ± ; 0.2 μ m, respectively. The refractile body was 4.7 ± ; 0.9 μ m in diameter. Despite small variations in size, the authors tentatively identified these species as Dermocystidium koi Hoshina & Sahara, 1950.
