“…Kvach et al [166] and attracted attention to the potential spillback that several species, namely the Acanthocephala Acanthocephalus anguillae (Müller, 1780) and A. lucii, the Nematoda Spiroxys contortus (Rudolphi, 1819) and P. tomentosa, the Cestoda Paradilepis scolecina (Rudolphi, 1819), Valipora campylancristrota (Wedl, 1855) and Ophiotaenia europaea Odening, 1963, the Monogenea Gyrodactylus luciopercae Gusev, 1962 and the Digenea Metorchis xanthosomus (Creplin, 1846) and Schiginella schigini (Bykhovskaja-Pavlovskaja, 1962), could undergo. Ophiotaenia europea, recorded from Germany, Ukraine and Russia, is of particular interest as it shows the possibility of establishing parasitological links between non-native fish and native reptiles, as it is transmitted to freshwater snakes Natrix tessellata (Laurenti, 1768) and Natrix natrix (Linnaeus, 1758) through fish consumption [35,[166][167][168][169]. This scenario does not only affect wild fauna, but can also have a notable impact on pets, e.g., M. xanthosomus was found several times in the introduced P. glenii [74,75,166,169] and in N. fluviatilis [133] and is of veterinary importance as it is known to infect dogs [170].…”
