Redescription of Myxobolus niloticus Fahmy et al. 1971, from tail fin of Labeo niloticus is presented in this paper to complete the Fahmy et al. description. The seasonal variation and the histological impacts of the parasite are described as well. In the present work, new data on the spore morphology were obtained with the use of light microscopy, which made it possible to be redescribe. The prevalence of infection was 20.8%. The infection caused mild fin lesions, which can be negligible. The low-intensity infection found in the present study caused only minor deformity of the fins.
