Amphibian hosts from the Samaspur Bird Sanctuary were investigated for the study of helminth parasites. A total of four species of hosts were studied and revealed the infection of five species of helminth parasites. In the study area, Euphlyctis cyanophlyctis harboured four species namely, Cosmocerca sp., Rhabdias sp., Ganeo tigrinum and Pleurogenoides gastroporus with prevalence of 0.33% each and intensity of 1.33, 1.66, 0.33 and 2 respectively. While, Duttaphrynus stomaticus was infected by a single species, Cosmocerca kalesari with prevalence of 1%, intensity 4-6 and abundance of 4.66. No infection was found in Polypedates maculatus and Hoplobatrachus tigerinus. This is the first study on the helminth parasites in Amphibian hosts from Samaspur Bird Sanctuary, a Ramsar site in Uttar Pradesh.
