Abstract: The material for this work was collected in Karakalpakstan in 2018–2022. A total of 258 predatory mammals were examined. The nematode was recorded only in the jackal. The nematode Dioctophyme renale is a common helminth parasitising the jackal in Karakalpakstan. The studies showed that 24 out of 91 examined jackals (26.4%) were infected with nematodes. The intensity of infection was 11 individuals. Dioctophyme renale is a biohelminth, whose first intermediate host is the worm Lumbriculus variegatus from the subclass Oligochaeta, and the reservoir host is the catfish.
