Abstract
From 1966 to 1967 the author carried out an investigation on the helminth fauna of gar-fish Belone belone (L.) from Puck Bay of the Baltic. It was established, the next species parasitise in gar-fish: Diplostomum spathaceum (Rud.), Tylodelphys sp., Scolex pleuronectis Mull., Contracaecum aduncum (Rud.), Cucullanus truttae (Fabricius), Pomphorhynchus laevis (Zoega), and Neoechinorhynchus rutili (Mull.). With exception of Pomphorhynchus laevis (Zoega) they were not found in gar-fish yet, but they occur commonly in the other Polish fishes.
