To conduct coprological studies to assess the current epidemiological state of bovine paramphistomiasis, 60 fecal samples were collected from different areas, of Babuganj upazila, Barishal, Bangladesh between 17th August 2022 to 5th January 2023. The sedimentation method was applied for the detection of parasitic eggs in the fecal contents. The overall prevalence rate of paramphistomiasis was 28.3%. Indigenous [28.6%, 95% CI: 1.06 (.24-4.61)] and older cattle had a slightly higher prevalence of paramphistomiasis than cross-bred (27.3%) and younger ones. Furthermore, the males [25%, 95% CI: 0.75 (.23-2.42)] were found to be less susceptible to paramphistomum infestations than the females (30.6%). However, no significant effects of age, sex, and breed were established for the development of paramphistomiasis in the cattle population.
