An adult male mountain hare (Lepus timidus), shot during the hunting season on the slopes of Mt. Civetta (eastern Alps, Veneto, northeastern Italy), was eviscerated and diffuse nodular lesions of verminous pneumonia were observed. Adult helminths were collected and male specimens were identified as Protostrongylus pulmonalis. Histologically, a non-purulent interstitial pneumonia and a desquamative bronchiolitis and alveolitis, along with thickening of alveolar septa, were apparent in the nodules. In several enlarged alveoli, a large number of eggs and larvae of nematodes were found. This is the first recorded case of protostrongyliasis in mountain hares from Italy and from an alpine population.
一只成年雄性山兔（Lepus timidus），在狩猎季节于奇维塔山（意大利东北部威尼托大区东阿尔卑斯山）山坡上被射杀，解剖后观察到弥漫性结节状蠕虫性肺炎病变。收集到成年蠕虫，雄性标本被鉴定为肺原圆线虫。组织学检查显示，结节内可见非化脓性间质性肺炎、脱屑性细支气管炎和肺泡炎，同时肺泡间隔增厚。在几个扩大的肺泡中，发现了大量线虫卵和幼虫。这是意大利以及高山种群中山兔感染原圆线虫病的首例记录病例。
