Aprocta matronensis (Nematoda, Spirurida) has been found in the orbital cavities of carrion crows. Hooded crows and crows from the hybrid crow zone in the studied areas were not infected. The parasite population showed the typical morphology described for this species. This is the first record of A. matronensis in crows in Italy and in Corvus corone corone. Some hypotheses about the distribution of the parasites in crow populations are discussed.
在腐肉乌鸦的眼眶中发现了马特罗尼氏无肛线虫（线虫纲，旋尾目）。在研究区域内， hooded crows和来自杂交乌鸦区域的乌鸦未被感染。寄生虫种群呈现出该物种所描述的典型形态。这是意大利乌鸦及小嘴乌鸦中首次记录到马特罗尼氏无肛线虫。文中讨论了关于寄生虫在乌鸦种群中分布的一些假说。
