Abstract

The results of the parasitologic study revealed some pecualiarities of trematoda fauna of Rana ridibunda (Amphibia) species. The parasitological research covered 65 individuals, including 35 adult and 30 larval exemplars. The investigation allowed identifying 5 species of trematodas (Opisthioglyphe ranae, Prosotocus confusus, Cephalogonimus retusus, Pleorugenoides medians, Diplodiscus subclavatus) belonging to 5 genus (Opisthioglyphe, Prosotocus, Cephalogonimus, Pleorugenoides, Diplodiscus), 5 families (Plagiorchiidae, Lecithodendriidae, Cephalogonimidae, Lecithodendriidae, Diplodiscidae) and 2 orders (Plagiorchiida și Echinostomatida), attributed only to adult exemplars.
