Six dissections of Woodcock were conducted. Three birds were found to be infected by trematodes: Pulvinifer macrostomum and Scolopacitrema cubrensis (Diplostomatidae). Both of them are new species for the Polish parasite fauna. The examination of P. macrostomum has shown a greater variability in size of the body and organs than that described by other authors.
During our investigations on the parasitofauna of birds from Lower Silesia, the trematode Leyogonimus postgonoporus was encountered twice: from Turdus merula and Scolopax rusticola. The morphological details and measurements of this rare trematode are described and compared with the literature data. L. postgonoporus is a new species for the parasitofauna of Poland and Scolopax rusticola appears to be a new definitive host species for this trematode.
