The prevalence and abundance of protostrongylid larvae (Nematoda: Protostrongylidae) in 173 fecal samples of Iberian red deer (Cervus elaphus hispanicus Erxleben, 1777) are presented. Large (401(365-425)+/-24 micom) spiny-tailed larvae, comparable to the descriptions of first stage Elaphostrongylus cervi larvae were found in 66.47+/-0.7% of the samples (range 6.8-100%, depending on the locality). The overall abundance of larvae in faces was overdispersed with an average of 24.94+/-96.23 (range 0-1202) larvae per gram, and ranged between sampling sites from 0.11+/-0.43 to 96+/-75 larvae per gram. This is the first report of large spiny-tailed protostrongylid larvae in deer from the western Mediterranean.
本文呈现了173份伊比利亚马鹿（Cervus elaphus hispanicus Erxleben，1777）粪便样本中原圆线虫幼虫（线虫纲：原圆科）的流行率和丰度。在66.47±0.7%的样本中发现了大型（401(365 - 425)+/-24微米）的刺尾幼虫，与鹿类圆线虫第一期幼虫的描述相符（样本范围为6.8 - 100%，具体取决于地点）。粪便中幼虫的总体丰度呈过度分散分布，平均每克有24.94±96.23条幼虫（范围为0 - 1202条），各采样点每克幼虫数量在0.11±0.43至96±75条之间。这是西地中海地区鹿类中大型刺尾原圆线虫幼虫的首次报告。
