One of the causative agents of protostrongilosis is Protostrongylus hobmaieri. These nematodes parasitize in the smallest bronchi, less often in the middle. Studies were conducted among sheep on the territory of the Absheron Peninsula and the adjacent Khizyn district. Sheep breeding is widely developed here. The work was carried out from 2016 to 2018. Surveys were taken from private sheep farms located in different villages. When performing the work, the method of complete helminthological dissections of animals according to K.I. Scriabin was used. The posthumous diagnosis of helminthiases is the most reliable. It was revealed that the intensity of invasion is high in the village of Altyagach (37.2%), the relative low intensity in the village of Zira (2.5%). High intensity of invasion was recorded in the village of Tudar (4-31 individuals), and low intensity in Mashtagi (2 individuals). Among the sheep, this invasion was not found in the villages of New Jasper and Sulutepe. The total infection of sheep with helminths by points was 12.4%.
