Abstract: This article analyzes the helminth fauna of game birds in the Fergana Region, their species composition, and host–parasite relationships. The relevance of the study is determined by the importance of game birds in the region for biodiversity conservation, the stability of natural ecosystems, and hunting management, as well as by the impact of helminths found in these birds on their physiological condition and the ecological stability of their populations. The study examines, based on scientific literature and parasitological research, the main systematic groups of game birds occurring in the Fergana Region, as well as the species composition, distribution, and infection rates of helminths parasitizing these birds, including trematodes, cestodes, nematodes, and acanthocephalans. The relationship between helminths and host ecology, feeding characteristics, habitat conditions, and seasonal factors is analyzed. The findings may provide a scientific basis for studying the parasite fauna of game birds in the Fergana Region, identifying patterns in the distribution of helminth infections, and monitoring wild bird populations. In addition, the study highlights opportunities for developing recommendations to improve sanitary and parasitological control and preventive measures in hunting farms.
