This study was performed to observe the infection rate and infection intensity of fresh water fish such as pale chub (Z. platypus) and dark chub (Z. temminckii) with the metacercariae of C. armatus. The fish were caught in several rivers and streams from June to September, 1988 and examined by artificial digestion technique. Total 370 fish were caught at 19 rivers. The metacercarial (C. armatus) infection rate and average burden in Z. platypus were 86.8% and 224, and those in Z. temminckii were 78.5% and 131. The infection rate and burden per fish were 73.4% and 32 in the fish caught from the Han river, and 88.0% and 44 from the Youngsan river. All fish caught from the Keum and the Tamjin river were infected and their mean metacercarial density was 45 and 59 respectively. The infection rate and density in fish caught from the Seomjin and Nagdong rivers were 100% and 119, and 81.0% and 348 respectively. From this study, it is confirmed that C. armatus is widely distributed along 5 major rivers in Korea.
本研究旨在观察宽鳍鱲（Z. platypus）和马口鱼（Z. temminckii）等淡水鱼被武装华支睾吸虫囊蚴感染的感染率和感染强度。这些鱼于1988年6月至9月在几条河流和溪流中捕获，并采用人工消化技术进行检查。在19条河流中共捕获370条鱼。宽鳍鱲的囊蚴（武装华支睾吸虫）感染率和平均感染量分别为86.8%和224，马口鱼的感染率和平均感染量分别为78.5%和131。从汉江捕获的鱼的感染率和每条鱼的感染量分别为73.4%和32，从荣山江捕获的鱼的感染率和感染量分别为88.0%和44。从锦江和蟾津江捕获的所有鱼均被感染，其囊蚴平均密度分别为45和59。从蟾津江和洛东江捕获的鱼的感染率和密度分别为100%和119，以及81.0%和348。通过本研究证实，武装华支睾吸虫在韩国的5条主要河流中广泛分布。
