An effort was made to evaluate objectively all findings on the variability of fluke of the family Paramphistomatidae and to give a clear survey on the species occurring in this country in order to be able to control it successfully in the case of widespread occurrence of paramphistomatosis or its intermediate hosts. The individual fluke species have specific intermediate hosts and a correct determination can make preventive measurements easier. Three species of rumen fluke live parasitically in the CSSR: Paramphistomum cervi, P.
