The purposes of this study were to define the life cycle of Echinococcus and its species and subspecies in Korea. The results were as followings: 1. The patent period day of Echinococcus granulosus was 50 days. 2. The life cycle of Echinococcus granulosus was dog-cattle-dog, as cattle-dog originating adult. 3. The sine of the adult worm was measured from 2.2mm to 6.2mm, but most of them was between 3.0mm and 4.0mm (40% of all). 4. Although the number of segments was from three to five proglottids, most of them was 3 proglottids(76.7%), as immature, mature and gravid, respectively. 5. The habitat of the adult worm was recognized as duodenum or pyloric region in the dog. 6.
