The rate of quantum ergodicity is studied for three strongly chaotic (Anosov) systems. The quantal eigenfunctions on a compact Riemannian surface of genus g=2 and of two triangular billiards on a surface of constant negative curvature are investigated. One of the triangular billiards belongs to the class of arithmetic systems. There are no peculiarities observed in the arithmetic system concerning the rate of quantum ergodicity. This contrasts to the peculiar behaviour with respect to the statistical properties of the quantal levels. It is demonstrated that the rate of quantum ergodicity in the three considered systems fits well with the known upper and lower bounds. Furthermore, Sarnak's conjecture about quantum unique ergodicity for hyperbolic surfaces is confirmed numerically in these three systems.
