الملخص

Freshwater snail Lymnaea aurcularia that is known as the intermediate host forTrematode larval stages were studied by using cercarial emergence and crushing. 659 samples were collected from August 2018 to July 2019 from five stations represented by Karmet Ali, Musab, Qurna, Shafi and El Deer. It was found the infection rate was 27.01%. Five species belong to three different groups including two species were recoreded for the first time in Basra. Echinostoma cercariae B, Armata xiphidiocercous cercariae B and three species were recorded previously: Virgulate xiphidiocercous, Echinostoma cercariae A and Armata xiphidiocercous. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of the environmental agents in Basra Province on the cercaria diversity and spread in Lymnaea auricularia
