During studies on the parasitofauna of fish in Serbia (Yugoslavia) in the waters of the Sjenica-Pester plateau (the region of Raska), i.e. in the Uvac river basin, a parasitic copepod Lamproglena pulchella has been identified on the gills of the fish species Leuciscus cephalus. This is the first finding of this copepod in the ichthyoparasitofauna of Yugoslavia (Cakic, 1992). In addition, Larnaea cyprinacea was also identified and the finding was compared with the data of other authors.
