Nematóides do Brasil. Parte V: nematóides de mamíferos

Abstract

ABSTRACT. BRAZILlAN NEMATOOES. PART V: NEMATOOES OF MAMMALS. A survey of nematode species parasitizing Brazilian mammals is presented, with enough data to provide their specific identification. The tirst section refers to the survey ofthe species, related to 21 superfamilies, 45 families, 160 genera and 495 species that are illustrated and measurement tables are given. The second section is concerned to the catalogue ofhost mammals which includes 34 families, 176 species and their respective parasite nematodes. The identification ofthese helminths is achieved by means ofkeys to the superfamilies, families and genera. Specific determination is induced through the figures and tables as above mentioned.

Gastrintestinal helminths Of Cerdocyon thous (Linnaeus, 1766 -Smith, 1839) from the caatinga area of the Paraíba State, Brazil

“…Regarding the generic composition of the infections, 16 helminth species were identified, diverging from results found by other authors (VICENTE et al, 1997;HORTA-DUARTE et al, 2004;RODRIGUES et al, 2006;GRIESE 2007;RUAS et al, 2008), mainly according to the number of nematode species.…”

“…The parasites were identified according to Ortlepp (1922), Travassos (1937), Machado-Filho (1950), Yamaguti (1961), Travassos, Freitas and Kohn (1969), Quentin (1969), Durette-Desset (1970;, Anderson, Chabaud and Wilmott (1983), Bray, Jones and Andersen (1994) and Vicente et al (1997).…”

Anatomo-pathological aspects of parasitism by nematodes of the superfamily Metastrongyloidea in wild crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) in Midwestern Brazil

“…in wild animals, such as the jaguarundi (Puma (Herpailurus) yagouaroundi) (VIEIRA et al, 2013), hoary fox (Dusicyon vetulus) (LIMA et al 1994), montane grass mouse (Akodon montensis) (SOUZA et al, 2009), and crab-eating fox (C. thous) (TRAVASSOS 1927;TRAVASSOS & FREITAS 1943;VICENTE et al, 1997;DUARTE et al, 2007). Cases of parasitism by Angiostrongylus spp.…”

Parasites in stool samples in the environment of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: an approach in public health

“…Other evolutive forms of the parasites found in this research, such as hookworms and Ascaris eggs, were classified in the genus level, since several eggs from different parasite species have the same morphometry, but different host species 15 .…”
