ABSTRACT
Light and scanning electron micrographs of Opisthorchis viverrini, Haplorchis taichui, H. pumilio, A Phaneropsolus bonnei, and Prosthodendrium molenkampi eggs were studied. Under light microscopy. O. viverrini eggs had rough eggshells and prominent shoulders. H. taichui, H. pumilio were similar in shape and had smooth eggshells and prominent shoulders. H. pumilio eggs were bigger than H. taichui eggs. P. bonnei and P. molenkampi eggs had smooth eggshells and indistinct shoulders. P. bonnei eggs were thinner and bigger than P. molenkampi eggs. Some deformed eggs of O. viverrini and Haplorchis sp. were found and they had no embryos and indistinct opercula. Under scanning electron microscopy, O. viverrini eggs looked like musk-melon skin; they had prominent shoulders and long knobs. H. taichui eggs had curly, thread-like ridges and prominent shoulders and knobs. H. pumilio eggs had streched ridges, like Chinese bitter mormodica, and prominent shoulders. P. bonnei and P. molenkampi eggs had smooth eggshells and small shoulders and knobs.
