In the present text, general study methods are briefly described for different groups of endoparasitic helminths, i.e., adults and larvae of flukes (Trematoda, i.e., Aspidogastrea and Digenea), tapeworms (Cestoda), parasitic nematodes (Nematoda) and spiny- or thorny-headed worms (Acanthocephala). The main focus of this section is on the most important steps in searching for endohelminths and on their fixation and processing to ensure adequate quality of the material collected for subsequent evaluation. More detailed information can be found in specialised papers or books on individual groups of endoparasitic helminths.
