Helminths from 51 roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) shot in the Julian Prealps during 2004-2007 were collected, of which 100% were positive for parasites. Gastrointestinal helminths were found in 100% of abomasums and caecum-colon and 90.5% of small intestines. The parasite community of this roe deer population shows good richness (23 species). Spicolopteragia spiculoptera and Ostertagia leptospicularis, with their alternative morphs S. mathevossiani and O. kolchida, were the abomasal dominant species, in the small intestine T. capricola and in caecum-colon Chabertia ovina. Between generalist species, Haemonchus contortus presents also a high prevalence and mean abundance (P=74.5; Am=294). The presence of several parasitic species shared by both domestic and wild ruminants and epidemiological indexes are discussed.
