All cases were detected within fi ve months. Infections were confi rmed after positive fi ndings of capillarid eggs in the urine sediment in following breeds. The eight years old Jack Russell Terrier, one year old Italian Greyhound, and eleven years old Yorkshire terrier were examined and treated. In one case, the infection was found accidentally in clinically healthy dog. Two other patients had nonspecifi c clinical signs such as apathy, inappetence, vomiting, polydipsia and frequent urination. This paper describes three individual cases, including the case history, clinical signs, examinations, and therapies. All data were obtained by attending veterinarian as well as by dog owners. Keywords: Urinary capillariasis; urine bladder; bladder worms; dogs Introduction prevalence in domestic dog population is unknown. The occur- rence of P. plica in domestic dogs was observed and described Urinary capillariasis caused by Pearsonema plica nematode of in quite a few case reports from Poland (Studzinska et al., 2015), family Capillariidae is often detected in wild canids.

KUZNETSOV; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The review provides data on species composition of nematodes in 50 species of birds from Armenia (South of Lesser Caucasus). Most of the studied birds belong to Passeriformes and Charadriiformes orders. One of the studied species of birds (Larus armenicus) is an endemic. The taxonomy and host-specificity of nematodes reported in original papers are discussed with a regard to current knowledge about this point. In total, 52 nematode species parasitizing birds in Armenia are reported. Most of the reported species of nematodes are quite common in birds outside of Armenia. One species (Desmidocercella incognita from great cormorant) was first identified in Armenia.

Braz J Vet Parasitol 2020; 29(3): e003920. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1984-29612020049 Abstract The Neotropic cormorant Nannopterum (Phalacrocorax) brasilianus (Suliformes: Phalacrocoracidae) is widely distributed in Central and South America. In Chile, information about parasites for this species is limited to helminths and nematodes, and little is known about other parasite groups. This study documents the parasitic fauna present in 80 Neotropic cormorants’ carcasses collected from 2001 to 2008 in Antofagasta, Biobío, and Ñuble regions. Birds were externally inspected for ectoparasites and necropsies were performed to examine digestive and respiratory organs in search of endoparasites.

Anguillicoloides crassus is of particular importance, as it has recently spread from its endemic range in the Eastern Pacific to Europe and North America, where it poses a significant threat to new, naïve hosts such as the economic important eel species Anguilla anguilla and Anguilla rostrata. The Anguillicolidae are therefore all potentially invasive taxa, but the relationships of the described species remain unclear. Anguillicolidae is part of Spirurina, a diverse clade made up of only animal parasites, but placement of the family within Spirurina is based on limited data.

  • Updated Molecular Phylogenetic Data for Opisthorchis Spp
    Dao et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:575 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2514-9 RESEARCH Open Access Updated molecular phylogenetic data for Opisthorchis spp. (Trematoda: Opisthorchioidea) from ducks in Vietnam Thanh Thi Ha Dao1,2,3, Thanh Thi Giang Nguyen1,2, Sarah Gabriël4, Khanh Linh Bui5, Pierre Dorny2,3* and Thanh Hoa Le6 Abstract Background: An opisthorchiid liver fluke was recently reported from ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) in Binh Dinh Province of Central Vietnam, and referred to as “Opisthorchis viverrini-like”. This species uses common cyprinoid fishes as second intermediate hosts as does Opisthorchis viverrini, with which it is sympatric in this province. In this study, we refer to the liver fluke from ducks as “Opisthorchis sp. BD2013”, and provide new sequence data from the mitochondrial (mt) genome and the nuclear ribosomal transcription unit. A phylogenetic analysis was conducted to clarify the basal taxonomic position of this species from ducks within the genus Opisthorchis (Digenea: Opisthorchiidae). Methods: Adults and eggs of liver flukes were collected from ducks, metacercariae from fishes (Puntius brevis, Rasbora aurotaenia, Esomus metallicus) and cercariae from snails (Bithynia funiculata) in different localities in Binh Dinh Province. From four developmental life stage samples (adults, eggs, metacercariae and cercariae), the complete cytochrome b (cob), nicotinamide dehydrogenase subunit 1 (nad1) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) genes, and near-complete 18S and partial 28S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences were obtained by PCR-coupled sequencing. The alignments of nucleotide sequences of concatenated cob + nad1+cox1, and of concatenated 18S + 28S were separately subjected to phylogenetic analyses. Homologous sequences from other trematode species were included in each alignment.

Soon after beginning, however, it became apparent that, perhaps, a more important contribution might be made at this time through a survey of the trematodes found in ducks in Michigan. The obvious need for, and the excellent opportunity afforded at the W. K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary for such a study, were instrumental in the change. Too, although Prosthogonimus is highly pathogenic in chickens, certain other trematodes seemed to be of more importance in ducks.

Abstract: In this work, we present an addendum to the “Checklist of the helminth parasites of vertebrates in Costa Rica” with a parasite-host list as well as a host-parasite list. This addendum updates the available infor- mation on this group of parasites in Costa Rica, since very recently a new input has been made to describe the helminth fauna of vertebrates, particularly at the Área de Conservación de Guanacaste. In this paper, we add 33 records, representing 23 species. This raises the number of helminth species described in vertebrates from Costa Rica to 325, represented by 89 species of digeneans, 23 of monogeneans, 63 of cestodes, 13 of acantho- cephalans, and 137 of nematodes. In total, 133 species of vertebrates have been studied for helminths in Costa Rica (31 species of fishes, 7 amphibians, 18 reptiles, 40 birds, and 37 mammals). Currently, 67 species (20.6 %) have been recorded as new species from Costa Rica and most of them are endemic to particular regions.

    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Inventory and Monitoring Branch FY2015 NRPC Final Report Documenting freshwater snail and trematode parasite diversity in the Wheeler Refuge Complex: baseline inventories and implications for animal health. Lori Tolley-Jordan Prepared by: Lori Tolley-Jordan Project ID: Grant Agreement Award# F15AP00921 1 Report Date: April, 2017 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Inventory and Monitoring Branch FY2015 NRPC Final Report Title: Documenting freshwater snail and trematode parasite diversity in the Wheeler Refuge Complex: baseline inventories and implications for animal health. Principal Investigator: Lori Tolley-Jordan, Jacksonville State University, Jacksonville, AL. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) Complex includes: Wheeler, Sauta Cave, Fern Cave, Mountain Longleaf, Cahaba, and Watercress Darter Refuges that provide freshwater habitat for many rare, endangered, endemic, or migratory species of animals. To date, no systematic, baseline surveys of freshwater snails have been conducted in these refuges. Documenting the diversity of freshwater snails in this complex is important as many snails are the primary intermediate hosts of flatworm parasites (Trematoda: Digenea), whose infection in subsequent aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates may lead to their impaired health. In Fall 2015 and Summer 2016, snails were collected from a variety of aquatic habitats at all Refuges, except at Mountain Longleaf and Cahaba Refuges. All collected snails were transported live to the lab where they were identified to species and dissected to determine parasite presence. Trematode parasites infecting snails in the refuges were identified to the lowest taxonomic level by sequencing the DNA barcoding gene, 18s rDNA. Gene sequences from Refuge parasites were matched with published sequences of identified trematodes accessioned in the NCBI GenBank database.
