The nematoda fauna of bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) was analysed for the first time from samples collected in Serbia. The specimens were collected in Fruska Gora National Park (locality of Brankovac). The number of collected specimens was 138, and infestation with seven Nematoda species was determined: Heligmosomum mixtum, Heligmosomoides glareoli, Syphacia petrusewiczi, S. stroma, Capillaria murissylvatici, Trichocephalus muris, and Aspiculuris tetrapteri. The species of Heligmosomum mixtum, Heligmosomoides glareoli, and Syphacia petrusewiczi represent the first record for the territory of Serbia. The species best represented in the sample were H. glareoli and S. petrusewiczi. There were no statistically significant differences between the sexes of host species regarding the prevalence, mean intensity, or mean abundance of parasite invasion.
