During the parasitological investigations on the gills of 3 cyprinid species from Lake Dojran (the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia), are found 4 monogenean species: in Rutilus rutilus dojranensis are found Dactylogyrus similis and Dactylogyrus suecicus, in Scardinius erythrophthalmus dojranensis is found Dactylogyrus difformis, and in Alburnus alburnus macedonicus is found Ligophorus sp. Prevalence in Rutilus alburnus dojranensis is 40.46%, in Scardinius erythrophthalmus dojranensis is 55.56%, and in Alburnus alburnus macedonicus is the lowest and amounts 2.02%. All monogenean species represents the first record for parasitic fauna of fish species in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. Finding of Ligophorus sp. in the fishes of the family Cyprinidae is new to science generally.
