Of them , 369 species are Dactylogyrus, 36 Silurodiscoides, 34 Ancyrocephalus, 38 garodactylus, 31 Diplozoon and a few species each in the remaning genera.

The geographical distribution of these species, subdivided into 5 regions and 12 subregions, and the formation of this fauna are discussed and analysed in general description. A survey of research history, classification system, the morphology, biology, ecology of Monogenea as well as economic meaning are also included in the general description.

A detail taxonomic description referred to the main characteristics of every one of 584 species, 8 families and 37 genera, including a series of taxonomic keys to all taxis and the notes of 42 new species are given below.
