Objective: To prove that Fujian Province is also a natural focus of Pagumogonimus veocularis(Pv).
Methods: The adult worms were obtained from a cat fed with Pv metacercariae.
Results: Pv were found in Jianou, Fujian Province. All 1,873 Semisulcospira libertina showed negative. The positive rate of Tricula fujianensis and Erhaia jianouenesis were 0.10% (1/695) and 0.25% (5/2,038), respectively. The main crab host was S. fujianensis. Ps alone and mixed infection with Pv were found in the Sinopotamon, the infection rates were 36.8% (43/117) and 20.5% (24/117), respectively. The numbers of the metacercariae were 806 and 40, respectively. A cat was infected with 12 metacercriae of Pv, eggs were found in the stool 56 days after infection, and 6 worms were found in the lungs 68 days after infection.
Conclusion: Fujian is one of the natural focus of Pv, cat is the adequate host. The fluke was identified as Pv according to the characteristics of the metacercariae.
