Five nematode species were recorded: <em>Capillaria </em>sp<em>.</em>, <em>Camallanus (Zenlanema) anabantis </em>Pearse, 1933, <em>Neocamallanus ophiocephali</em> (Pearse, 1933), <em>Spinitectus clariasi</em> Ha Ky, 1971 and <em>Spinitectus ophicephali </em>Ha Ky, 1971. These nematode species are briefly described and illustrated. Among them, two species have been reported for the first time in Vietnam.</p> <p>The fish infection rates with nematodes were 15.8% and the intensities 1-30 (5.6) worms/fish. The nematode infection in <em>Anabas testudineus</em> is the highest: 95.8%. The infection rate of nematode species was as follows: <em>Capillaria </em>sp<em>.</em>: 12.5%, <em>Camallanus (Zenlanema) anabantis</em>: 95.8%, <em>Neocamallanus ophiocephali</em>: 24.0%, <em>Spinitectus clariasi</em>: 10.7% and <em>Spinitectus ophicephali</em>: 10.5%.</p>}, number={4}, journal={Academia Journal of Biology}, author={Ha, Nguyen Van and Duc, Nguyen Van and Binh, Tran Thi}, year={2014}, month={Nov.}, pages={28–35} }
