Description Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) based on new methods (Nedela 2010; Nedela et al., 2015) and instrumentation (Jirak et al., 2010) can be used for the advanced study of parasites in their native state. The aim of this work is to show new results of two groups of helminth parasites (Nematoda, Contracaecum osculatum; and Acanthocephala, Corynosoma pseudohamanni) with minimal shape and volume distortions (keeping them acceptable for taxonomical research) and to emphasize the advantages of dynamical in situ experiments in this field of science.
