Abstract:
Background: Intestinal worm infestation is a global health problem and serious concern for the third world countries. The most common intestinal parasites of helminthes that inhabit in human gut include Nematodes (roundworms) and Platyhelminthes (Cestodes and trematodes) which are wide spread throughout the world. Prevention and control of all parasitic infections including helminthes require research work based on the identification of parasites and associated predisposing factors.

Three types of Trematodes were identified: Echinochasmus, Heterophyes and , Prohemistomum with infection rate of 4% for each type. Such species were identified for the first time in stray cats in the Iraq. Moreover, four types of cestodes were identified: Diplopylidium, Dipylidium caninum, Joyeuxie

Invasion diseases are the most widespread in the world and cause significant economic losses to the sheep farming. Gastro-intestinal strongylidoses of sheep are among the most relevant. These diseases are mainly chronic and are accompanied by damage to the intestinal and abomasum mucous lining and decrease in animal productivity. Today, anti-helminthic means are used as one of the fastest and most convenient methods of fighting strongyles of sheep digestive tract.
