AB Since 1955 as yet in the territory of the Czech Republic in 4 species of the genus Apodemus (namely A. flavicollis, A. sylvaticus, A. microps and A. agrarius), 49 species of parasitic worms were registered in total. At their revision, comparing with the modern literature from the last five decades, the author has approached to several corrections. Subjects are, first of all, several opinions on the species from the genera Plagiorchis, Echinostoma, Aprostatandrya, Catenotaenia, Hymenolepis, Syphacia, Heligmosomum, Heligmosomoides, Ganguleterakis and Aonchotheca. Of highly characteristic helminths parasitizing Apodemus spp. in Czech Republic, they are from the class Trematoda: Brachylaemus recurvus; from the class Cestoda: Paranoplocephala omphalodes, Skrjabinotaenia lobata, Catenotaenia sp., Hymenolepis straminea; from the class Nematoda: Syphacia stroma, S. frederici, S. agraria, Heligmosomum pseudocostellatum, Heligmosomoides polygyrus, Aonchotheca murissylvatici, Calodium hepaticum, Trichocephalus muris; from the class Acanthocephala: Moniliformis moniliformis. A number of species has to be verified, in a future, by methods of molecular biology.
