The life cycle of the trematode Plagioporus skrjabini has been investigated. These trematodes use the mollusk Theodoxus fluviatilis as the first intermediate host and sand hoppers as additional hosts (under experimental conditions-Pontogammarus robustoides, Chaetogammarus ischnus, under natural conditions-P. robustoides, P. crassus, Dikerogammarus villosus, D. haemobaphes, Ch. ischnus, Amathillina cristata). Bullheads (Neogobius kessleri, N. fluviatilis) serve as definitive hosts. Cercaria and metacercaria are described.
