Abstract: Among the avian used for human consumption, the Muscovy duck is well adapted to various climatic conditions and its breeding is widespread due to its easy handling, and its meat is widely consumed and appreciated, especially in the cuisine of northern Brazil. The present study aimed to report and identify taxonomically the nematodes found in the esophagus of Muscovy ducks reared and marketed in the municipality of Soure, Marajó Island, state of Pará, Brazil, and discuss its zoonotic potential to human.

“…According to Lymbery and Cheah (2007), the larvae of these nematodes also promote a series of pathological effects in accidental hosts, such as humans. This reinforces the need for attention and care in proper management during the removal and disposal of the viscera of ducks infected with L3 larvae of anisakids, avoiding the migration of these larvae to the musculature of the bird in the postmortem and the possible risks to human health due to ingestion of contaminated meats (Carvalho et al, 2020). In this study, the presence of Contracaecum sp.…”

“…Histopathological changes caused by the presence of Eucoleus contortus, Anisakis sp., Contracaecum sp., are recorded herein for the first time in our research parasitizing the esophagus and ventricle of Muscovy duck in Brazil. These birds raised without confinement, look for food in areas of rivers or lakes, with no selectivity in feeding (Meulen and Dikken, 2003), which may justify the presence of these anisakid and capillary nematodes in birds (Carvalho et al, 2019(Carvalho et al, , 2020. Different studies have been carried out in order to characterize the parasitic fauna of ducks around the world.…”

“…However, the helminth infections of the Muskovy ducks C. moschata domestica have been poorly studied (Carvalho et al 2019), despite possible losses in terms of reduced body growth and mortality in breeding, as well as the presence of helminths with zoonotic potential. Carvalho et al (2020) described the first report of Anisakis sp. parasitizing Muscovy duck in Marajo ´Island, State of Para ´ (Brazil).…”

“…Infection by nematodes, cestodes and trematodes has been reported for C. moschata domestica (Table 1), although only a few studies have been carried out with domestic animals (Muhairwa et al 2007;Mattos-Junior et al 2008;Carvalho et al 2019Carvalho et al , 2020 2016). As there are few studies about helminths in C. moschata domestica, the knowledge related to diversity of these parasites is consequently limited, and the community structure of endohelminths is unknown so far.…”
