A total of 260 Heteropneustes fossilis (Bloch) were examined for a nematode camallanid parasite Canallanus heteropneustus Ali 1956, during October, 1988 - September, 1989. The parasite was collected from stomach and intestine of the host and only 41 fish were found infected by this nematode. The overall prevalence and mean intensity of Procamallanus heteropneustus Ali were 20.9% and 1.9, respectively. The male fish was found more infected than the female. Both in male and female fishes the prevalence seemed to be lower in the first half of the year than the second half.
