AB - In this study we set out to estimate the prevalence for trematodes and lung worms in slaughtered lambs in Styria. 

In total 218 lambs were investigated from two abattoirs in Styria. All animals were examined clinically. Faecal samples, condemned lungs and livers and the bile of all selected animals were collected during the slaughter process. Fasciola hepatica and Dicrocoelium dendriticum were the target species. Additionally, samples were checked for the presence of lungworms. 

Fasciola hepatica and Dictyocaulus filaria were not detected in any of the samples taken. The total number of Dicrocoelium dendriticum was 14.5%. Protostrongylus rufescens was detected in five out of 218 animals (2.3%).
