Abstract: Parasitological investigations of eighty-four Microtus oeconomus ssp. mehelyi in Hungary revealed the occurrence of twelve helminths (two Trematoda, five Cestoda, five Nematoda) and of six Siphonaptera species. M. oeconomus mehelyi is a new host for the following five parasite species: Psilotrema simillimum (Mühling, 1898) - Trematoda - Vampirolepis asymmetrica (Janicki, 1904), Anoplocephaloides dentata (Galli-Valerio, 1905) - Cestoda - Ctenophthalmus agyrtes agyrtes (Heller, 1896) and Peromyscopsylla bidentata (Kolenati, 1860) - Siphonaptera.
