Abstract
A total of 578 fishes, belonging to 19 species, were collected from Al-Graiat region on the Tigris River at Baghdad province during the period from July 2015 until the end of March 2016. The results showed the occurrence of eight species of the genus Gyrodactylus Nordmann 1832 (Monogenea: Gyrodactylidae). Among these parasites, four species were recorded for the first time in Iraq namely: G. comephori, G. ibragimovi, G. macronychus and G. masu. Also, seven species of fishes were regarded as new hosts for four species of the studied parasites. The description and measurements of these parasites were given as well as their illustrations.
