Helminths were investigated from the intestines of 72 domestic ducks and the intestines of 72 domestic chicken. They were collected from 4 markets in Amphoe Bangplee, Samut Prakarn Province between August 2001 and January, 2002. Specimens were divided for stereo microscope preparation where the parasites were fixed in 10 percent formalin, dehydrated in alcohol gradients, stained with carmine, mounted in Premont and identified under stereo microscope and light microscope. We found that the parasitic infection rates of domestic ducks and domestic chicken were 18.05 percent and 1.38 percent respectively. Incidences of the trematodes were 13.89 percent, 2.78 percent and 1.38 percent in domestic ducks regarding three species of trematodes helminths, Hypoderaeum conoideum, Prosthogonimus sp. And Echinostoma revolutum, respectively: whereas 1.38 percent of Hypoderaeum conoideum was found in domestic chicken. Tapeworms and roundworms were also found in domestic ducks and demestic chicken. However, the species of tapeworms and roundworms have not yet been identified. Regarding domestic ducks, trematode helminths were found in the first, second, third part of the intestine, cecum and colon with the incidence of 21.74 percent , 57.97 percent, 17.39 percent, 1.45 percent and 1.45 percent, respectively and in domestic chicken, there were found at 0 percent, 66.67 percent, 33.37 percent, 0 percent and 0 percent , respectively. In this study, poultry helminths in Amphoe Bangplee were found. Some species of helminths may cause helminthiasis in humans. Findings reported may be significant to current epidemiological studies, particularly on the biodiversity of helminths in the area of Amphoe Bangplee. Further studies on seasonal and other environmental factors on the prevalence of helminths including helminthiasis in humans are deemed relevant.
