Abstract: Chromosomes of Schistosoma japonicum were prepared by usual air drying method, C-band and G-band were made by modified BSG method and enzyme digestion method respectively. Results showed that the karyotype of S. japonicun was 4m+6Sm+4St+2sex chromosome and the C-band formula was 2n= 5CI++4CI++3CI+2CT+2CT+.

Key words: Schistosoma japonicum, Chromosome, Karyotype, C-band, G-band
