The lake minnow, Eupallasella percnurus (Pall.), has not been subject to any comprehensive ichthyoparasitological study; most information on its parasites comes from studies focused on other fish species. The knowledge of the geographical distribution of its parasites is especially incomplete. This paper presents the most up-to-date list of E. percnurus parasites throughout its distribution range. Most of the trematodes, tapeworms, and nematodes found in this host are larval forms. This means that the parasites use the E. percnurus mainly as an intermediate or paratenic host, and not the definitive host, which is important in light of potential parasite pathogenicity
