Studies on fascioliasis in Puerto Rico since its first documentation in man in 1904 are summarized under the headings: life cycle; infection in man; infections in animals; the intermediate host; diagnosis. The studies suggest that bovine fascioliasis is increasing to hyperendemic proportions and that human infection is commoner than previously suspected.
