“…(Petrželková et al , 2010; Klaus et al , 2017; Garcia-Sánchez et al ., 2020; Kamani et al , 2021), or species of the genera Aonchotheca , Baruscapillaria, Capillaria, Calodium , Echinocoleus , Eucoleus , Pearsonema and Tridentocapillaria (Borba, 2019; Borba et al , 2021a). Interestingly, C. hepaticum eggs from Meriones persicus and R. rattus are described as having a ‘very peculiar morphology’, that is, a punctuated and a radial eggshell ornamentation, with a thick eggshell (5.54 μm) (Borba et al ., 2021b). Furthermore, Borba et al (2021b) recently reported a new methodology for Capillariid species identification based on artificial intelligence technology.…”
