Abstract: During July and part of August in the seasons of 1949 and 1950 a study was made of fish parasites in the Jackson Hole area and in Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming. In the two periods 2,535 fish belonging to 14 different species were examined and 2,351 or 92.3% carried at least one species of parasite. Many of these fish were obtained by seining. The small number of species obtained and the fact that there were not many different types of habitats limited the numbers of various parasite species.
