Correct answer is below the image.
Correct answer: Eggs of Fasciola hepatica or Fasciolopsis buski.
The size of eggs is an important feature in differentiating F. hepatica/F. buski eggs from the similar-appearing but smaller eggs of Diphyllobothrium and Paragonimus. Unfortunately it is not possible to reliably differentiate the eggs of F. hepatica and F. buski by morphology alone.
