Abstract
Carcasses of adult female Khaki Campbell ducks with a history of sudden death on
necropsy revealed the presence of live, bright red coloured flattened parasites of varying
size. Parasitological examination revealed them to be digenetic trematode Tracheophilus
sp. This appears to be the first report of the parasite from the Union Territory of
Puducherry and Villupuram, Cuddalore districts of Tamil Nadu.
