    Notes: Density, but not body size, of drifting young-of-the-year cyprinid fishes was negatively correlated with light intensity. As an ability to resist the water current develops gradually with size, the results support the view that drift in cyprinid fishes is a behavioural decision, triggered by light level, rather than passive displacement of visually disoriented fishes.

    Notes: The distributions of invasive Neogobius species were investigated in the Slovak section of the River Danube from Bratislava downstream to the village of Chl'aba. During October 2004, the main channel of the Danube was sampled, including by-pass, head-race and tail-race canals of the Gabčíkovo dam, backwaters and the lower-most sections of the tributaries Malý Dunaj, Hron, Váh and Ipel’. Three Neogobius species already documented in Slovakia were captured (monkey goby Neogobius fluviatilis, bighead goby N. kessleri, round goby N. melanostomus), with the latter two species being found in almost all stretches of the Slovak Danube. Monkey goby had a most limited distribution, and no racer goby N. gymnotrachelus were observed. The abundance of particular Neogobius species appeared to depend on the character of the shoreline habitat, and a possible association between larger towns and the abundance of bighead and round gobies requires further investigation.

    Notes: Metazoan parasites were investigated in three non-native fishes (monkey goby Neogobius fluviatilis, bighead goby Neogobius kessleri and round goby Neogobius melanostomus) collected from the former and current main channel of the River Danube and from the River Hron, Slovakia, in November 2003. Thirteen parasite species were identified: Triaenophorus crassus, Diplostomum sp., Tylodelphys clavata, Metorchis xanthosomus, Nicolla skrjabini, Gyrodactylus proterorhini, Pomphorhynchus laevis, Contracoecum sp., Raphidascaris acus, Anguillicola crassus, Unio tumidus, Anodonta anatina and Pseudoanodonta complanata. The maximum parasite diversity was found in N. fluviatilis. Total parasite abundance was significantly higher in N. kessleri, but no significant differences among sampling sites were observed. Pomphorhynchus laevis and glochidia of Anodonta anatina reached 100% prevalence in N. kessleri in the new channel of the Danube and, in general, these species were also the most prevalent parasites in all three goby species. For endoparasites, gobies served mostly as intermediate (digenean, cestodes and nematodes) or paratenic (acantocephalan and nematodes) hosts. All parasite species found are common parasites in the Middle Danube basin. No parasites specific to Neogobius, known from their native populations, were observed.

    Notes: Young-of-the-year (YOY) riverine fish use the facility of water currents to disperse downstream from their spawning sites. We combined data on the diel changes in YOY fish activity and their distribution in the river to investigate a relation between the onset of their downstream movement and ontogeny of their diel activity. Plexi-glass traps and electrofishing were used to investigate the activity and distribution of YOY fish. Fish species such as Leuciscus leuciscus, Leuciscus cephalus, Chondrostoma nasus, Barbus barbus and Rutilus rutilus dominated our samples from two separate study sites in the River Morava. Results are discussed in context of ontogeny of phototrophic and rheotrophic behaviour, seasonality, diel periodicity and stage-dependence of the downstream movement and also in relation to environmental (river discharge, water temperature) variability.

    Notes: The lowest frequency of metacercariae of Posthodiplostomum cuticola on the bodies of six young-of-the-year cyprinid species was found on the head and ventral body. Metacercariae distribution differed among host species which may have been related to the behaviour of the fish host.

    Notes: st young-of-the-year (YOY) fishes in two lowland rivers in the Czech Republic (Danube Basin) drifted from mid-May to mid-July and almost exclusively at night. The peak of drift density lasted c. 3 weeks and depended on water temperature (by its effect on fish spawning), but not on discharge. Peak drift densities varied between years and rivers from 80 to 1354 fish 1000 m−3. More than 98% of drifting fish were cyprinids. Rutilus rutilus, Rhodeus sericeus, Gobio spp., Alburnus alburnus and Abramis brama were dominate in the 22 species encountered in the River Morava. Carassius auratus gibelio and R. sericeus were the most common of 17 species in the River Kyjovka. Species composition of drifting fishes was similar among years in the Morava but varied in the Kyjovka. The species composition of drifting fishes did not differ from those of the YOY fish assemblage in nursery areas during the drift season. Relative abundances in nursery areas decreased after the drift season in species that dominated in the drift, but increased in those that avoided drift. It is suggested that drift is a regular part of the life history of many cyprinid fishes and interannual variability in density and species composition of drifting YOY fish can be explained by variable spawning success among years. Differences in the relative abundances of the YOY fish assemblage in nurseries during and after the drift season suggests that drift may cause significant mortality.

    Notes: We tested the hypothesis that numbers of small fish increase along river banks with decreasing light levels. Fish were sampled every 3h over a 24-h period (30–31 August 1992) along two adjacent stretches of bank (one shallow sand, one steep boulder) on the R. Morava near Breelav, Czech Republic. The size of fish was significantly greater along the boulder bank than along the sand bank. Numbers of fish along the steep boulder bank did not increase with decreasing light levels, except in Rhodeus sericeus and perch Perca fluviatilis, which were significantly more abundant at night. Along the shallow sand bank, all species increased in number at night, most significantly so. As light levels decreased, numbers of whitefin gudgeon Gobio albipinnatus and roach Rutilus rutilus decreased along the boulder bank, as their numbers increased along the sand bank, suggesting a dusk migration to the sand bank to avoid predation. This assumption was corroborated by the significantly higher number of potentially piscivorous fishes (P. ftuviatilis and chub Leuciscus cephalus≥ 80 mm) along the boulder bank during the night.

    Notes: Egg strands of perch Perca fluviatilis around the margins of a lake were associated significantly with submerged vegetation. The proportion of dead embryos was significantly higher in egg strands deposited directly on the lake bottom than those on submerged vegetation.

    Notes: Abstract  – Habitat use by four size-classes of bitterling (Rhodeus sericeus) in a regulated lowland river was studied at two spatial scales. Mesohabitat scale was represented by the bank type (boulder, beach and steep eroded bank). Microhabitat associations with substrate types, vegetation, woody debris and position in the stream were examined at each mesohabitat scale. Three size cohorts of young-of-the-year (0+) fish and a group of adult bitterling were detected. Univariate (χ2-tests) and multivariate (Outlying Mean Index analysis) methods were applied to determine size-related habitat associations. All the size-classes of bitterling avoided the steep eroded bank and most 0+ bitterling were distributed along the boulder bank. The smallest fish had the most pronounced habitat requirements and occurred mostly in the depositional areas, whereas the larger 0+ fish occurred in deeper water. The size-related change in the habitat use coincided with a change in diet and morphological state.
