The article highlights the fauna and landscape-geographical features of
helminths of small cattle in the conditions of Uzbekistan. According to the results
of our own research and analysis of literature data, 110 species of helminths were

Marshallagia uzbekistanica, Cystocaulus vsevolodovi, Spiculocaulus kwongi,
Neosrongylus linearis, Varestrongylus pneumonicus, Cooperia punctata, C.
Pectinata ) - for the first time in Uzbekistan. Also, out of 74 species of
Marshallagia uzbekistanica helminths identified in goats of the Republic, we
described them as a new species for science, and 4 species ( Protostrongylus
rufescens, Spiculocaulus kvongi, S. leuckarti, S. austriacus ) are recorded by us
for the first time in the CIS and 9 species ( Protostrongylus rufescens , P. caprae,
