With the aims to determine the infection frequency by tapeworms of Diphyllobothrium genus 30 samples from captive wild carnivores were analyzed. A 30% of the animal analyzed was positive to the infection. Whereas the family Procionidae has a high percentage of positivity (60%), Canidae have lower infection ratio (20-25%). The accuracy for the diagnosis of Diphylobothrium was made by the morphology of scolex, proglottids and eggs. This is the first report of the parasite presence in Argentine wild carnivores.
为了确定复孔绦虫属绦虫的感染频率,对30份圈养野生食肉动物的样本进行了分析。30%的被分析动物感染呈阳性。其中,鼬科动物的阳性率较高(60%),犬科动物的感染率较低(20%-25%)。通过头节、节片和虫卵的形态对复孔绦虫进行诊断。这是阿根廷野生食肉动物中存在该寄生虫的首次报告。
