The present study aimed to isolate, classify and identified internal parasites that affecting on Sardinella aurita, Fish samples were collected from different localities from the coast of Lattakia (the Port of fisheries and Picnic and Ibn Hani), during the period between June 2022 to May 2023 , the total number of fish examined was 240 individuals. Morphological measurements were taken (Total length, Weigh, Age) then

 All fish were externally examined.  The internal organs of all caught individuals (Pyloric caeca, Stomach, intestines, liver, gonads, swim bladder, muscles, eyes) were examined for infection with internal parasites.

In this study, two types of internal parasites were isolated: First type is the Tetraphylide type that belongs to class Cestoda, it was isolated from the pyloric caeca and the second type is Anisakis sp type that belongs to class Nematoda, it was isolated from the inner wall of the intestine.
