The infeccions caused by enteroparasites are very common among the humans and prevalent in the underdeveloped countries because of their close linkage to their sanitary and hygiene conditions. This study aims the investigation about the enteroparasites those cause humans illness, in community in the State of Rondonia, organized by the "Rural Workers Movement Without Land" (MST). At that community, called Pe. Ezequiel located in Mirante da Serra municipality, in RO, the direct and the spontaneous sedimentation in water methods were used for the detection and identification of the parasitic forms of protozoas and helmints in excrement materiais, and the ELlSA's test for the detection of the especific antigen, anti- GIAP (galactose inhibitory adherence's protein) Entamoeba histolytica ( Techlab, Blacksburg, VA, USA). 313 fecal samples were tested by the coproscopical methods and 186 by EUSA's test. The total prevalence was 33,5% and the E. histolytica Giardia lamblia and ancilostomides were the most frequent pathogenic parasites. There were no statistical significances between parasitism and age group, but the relation between E. histolytica and the female group had showed significance. The risk factor(s) was (were) not determined in relation to the founded infections among the studied group. The resulta of ELlSA's test detected a higher number of intestinal amebiasis in comparison to those detected by coproscopical method. Taking into account that the community is rural area without a ideal struture for living, the parasitism found was amazing. However, the basic local struture associated to the group's organization, the communitary conscious and the basic health education are main factors for the prevention and/or control of the parasites infections.
