Abstract

As a result of experimental and faunistic investigations it is established that the development of the trematode species Azygia hwangtsiytii Tsin, 1933 in Primorsky Territory is realized in the first intermediate host, snail Cipangopaludina ussuriensis, and in second hosts, fishes Perccottus glehni and Channa argus warpachowskii, which can serve as transit, as well as final hosts. For Azygia robusta Odhner, 1911 terms of the development in the first intermediate host, snail Anisus centrifugus are established.
