Data on the distribution of Dactylogyrus amphibothrium, Ergasilus sieboldi, Gyrodactylus longiradix and Myxobolus muelleri on the gills of ruffe Gymnocephalus acerinae are given. In different years the distribution of the parasites on the gills may vary that is apparently due to the intereffect of the parasites. The paper concerns as well the effect of host sex and oxygen content in the water on the distribution of dactylogyruses. The parasites have a similar distribution on the gills of males and females of the ruffe. With the decrease in oxigen content a change in the localization of the worms and decrease in their abundance were observed.
