摘要：AbstractA total of 1242 out of 1484Trichogaster fasciatusfish were found to be infected with metacercarial stage ofClinostomum complanatumwhere 14,258 parasites were recorded mainly from the peritoneal cavity, gills and viscera during five years of study period. The seasonal variations in prevalence, intensity and abundance of the parasitic infection were assessed. The maximum and minimum values of prevalence of metacercarial infection ofC. complanatumin the fish were 92.40% and 70.40% during summer and winter respectively. Similarly, intensity and abundance of the parasite were maximum during summer as compared to winter and rainy seasons. The high prevalence of infection of the parasite during summer may be because of the time of emergence of cercariae in high temperature from snail vector and the environment.
