Abstract
Analysis of mitotic and meiotic chromosome spreads of Aspidogaster conchicola (Trematoda: Aspidogastrea) reveals a diploid number of 10 for this species. Haploid sets containing 5 bivalents confirm the diploid number. The karyotype consists of one pair of comparatively long subtelocentric chromosomes and four pairs of shorter acrocentric elements. The results are discussed in comparison with existing data on chromosomes of aspidogastrean species and other related helminth groups.
