| [type identity of the swine parasites globocephalus longemucronatus and g. urosubulatus (nematoda, strongyloidea)]. | on the basis of a critical analysis of the literature and of our own investigations, it is pointed out that the two hookworm species known from european swine, namely globocephalus longemucronatus molin, 1861 and g. urosobulatus (alessandrini, 1909), are identical. all the differences hitherto used to distinguish these species are shown to be due to incorrect descriptions of the taxonomic characters or to misinterpretations of statements made by former authors. accordingly, only one species of g ... | 1986 | 3800048 |
| flubendazole: dose range and efficacy studies against common internal parasites of swine. | the anthelmintic spectrum of activity and efficacy of flubendazole, using pigs naturally infected with helminth parasites, were determined in 4 experiments, using 157 pigs. flubendazole (1.5 mg/kg of body weight) mixed in feed or top-dressed on feed for 5 consecutive days was highly effective as an anthelmintic. this dosage level indicated 100% efficacy against mature ascaris suum, oesophagostomum dentatum, trichuris suis, and metastrongylus apri. there was 88% efficacy against strongyloides ran ... | 1983 | 6881670 |

| epidemiological study of the intestinal helminths of wild boar (sus scrofa) and mouflon (ovis gmelini musimon) in central italy. | since 1995 the population of wild ungulates increased significantly in the "parco provinciale dei monti livornesi" (livorno, tuscany, central italy). we studied the intestinal macroparasites of two hosts, the wild boar (sus scrofa) and the mouflon (ovis gmelini musimon). in the case of wild boars we found a dominant parasite species, globocephalus urosubulatus. for this parasite the frequency distribution of the number of parasites per host agrees with a negative binomial distribution. there is ... | 2002 | 12701385 |
| wild boar helminths: risks in animal translocations. | the helminth populations found in a group of wild boars collected in central spain were compared to those in a group of animals imported from a french game farm that produces boars for restocking. eleven helminth species, including ten nematodes and one acanthocephalan, were found. gongylonema pulchrum and macracanthorhynchus hirundinaceus were only detected in autochthonous wild boars, while oesophagostomum dentatum, ascaris suum, and trichuris suis were detected in imported animals only. autoc ... | 2003 | 12944047 |
| efficacy of an in-feed preparation of ivermectin against helminths in the european wild boar. | the wild boar is one of europe's most popular game species and its densities are increasing. management tools such as farm breeding, supplementary feeding, and translocations are more frequently employed and anthelmintics are increasingly used in game farms and translocations. here, we report the results of a controlled slaughter study on the efficacy of an in-feed preparation of ivermectin in european wild boars naturally infected with various helminths. the efficacy of ivermectin against adult ... | 2004 | 14648206 |
| redescription of dracunculus globocephalus mackin, 1927 (nematoda: dracunculidae), a parasite of the snapping turtle, chelydra serpentina. | dracunculus globocephalus mackin, 1927 (nematoda: dracunculoidea) is redescribed from specimens collected from the mesentery of the snapping turtle, chelydra serpentina (l.), in louisiana, usa. the use of scanning electron microscopy, applied for the first time in this species, made it possible to study details in the structure of the cephalic end and the arrangement of male caudal papillae that are difficult to observe under the light microscope. this species markedly differs from all other spe ... | 2004 | 15729947 |
| influence of season and host age on wild boar parasites in corsica using indicator species analysis. | the indicator value (ind val) method which combines measures of fidelity and specificity has been used in a study on wild boar parasites in corsica during 2001-2003. because of its resilience to changes in abundance, indval is a particularly effective tool for ecological bioindication. the ind val method showed how season can influence the occurrence of parasite species in the wild boar, and also identified parasites as bioindicators relative to host age. the randomization test identified five p ... | 2006 | 16469171 |
| prevalence of common gastrointestinal nematode parasites in scavenging pigs of different ages and sexes in eastern centre province, burkina faso. | the range and infestation intensities of gastrointestinal parasitic nematode species depend on the type of swine production system. the present study focused mainly on nematodes of veterinary importance in scavenging pigs in burkina faso, and aimed at determining the prevalence of gastro-intestinal nematode parasites by means of faecal egg per gram (epg) counts. between november 2001 and october 2002, faecal samples from 383 pigs of different sexes and ages (< 5 months, 5-12 months and > 12 mont ... | 2006 | 16715878 |
