Abstract: Three species of rumen flukes, Paramphistomum gotoi Fukui, 1922; P. microbothrium Fischoeder, 1901 and Carmyerius gregarius (Looss, 1896) have been recovered from Egyptian ruminants. P. microbothrium was found in every host species examined (Bubalus bubalis, Bos taurus, Ovis aries, Camelus dromedarius, Capra hircus and Capra nubiana), while P. gotoi and C. gregarius occurred in buffalo only. P. cervi appears not to occur in Egypt. The species formerly identified as P. cervi is in fact P. microbothrium.
