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 not a significant correlation between the age of the animals and the parasitosis. Furthermore the mean parasite burden of male and female wild boars does not differ significantly. In the case of mouflons we found a dominant parasite species Nematodirus filicollis with Trichuris ovis as codominant species.
自1995年以来，意大利中部托斯卡纳大区利沃诺市的“利沃内塞山省级公园”内野生有蹄类动物的数量显著增加。我们研究了两种宿主——野猪（Sus scrofa）和摩弗伦羊（Ovis gmelini musimon）的肠道大型寄生虫。在野猪体内，我们发现了一种优势寄生虫物种——苏氏球首线虫（Globocephalus urosubulatus）。对于这种寄生虫，每只宿主寄生虫数量的频率分布符合负二项分布。动物年龄与寄生虫病之间没有显著相关性。此外，雄性和雌性野猪的平均寄生虫负荷没有显著差异。在摩弗伦羊体内，我们发现了一种优势寄生虫物种——丝状细颈线虫（Nematodirus filicollis），绵羊鞭虫（Trichuris ovis）为共优势物种。
