The salmon parasite Gyrodactylus salaris is present in many Norwegian rivers. In the southern part of Norway the parasite is established in the rivers Lierelva and Drammenselva. In River Begna G. salaris is found on rainbow trout, who is a good host for the parasite. Grayling an char can also carry G. salaris for a long time. The parasite is also present in some swedish rivers. The occurrence of G. Salaris in these rivers is a serious threat to Atlantic salmon in all parts of southern Norway.
