Abstract
Adult lung nematodes identified as Halocercus lagenorhynchi were collected from the lungs of four Tursiops truncatus calves. The calves ranged in age from newborn to 3-wk-old and were found on both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of Florida (USA). This finding suggests the possibility of a more cosmopolitan distribution of prenatal infection with lung nematodes in cetaceans than previously suspected.
摘要
从4头宽吻海豚幼崽的肺中采集到了被鉴定为瓶鼻海豚嗜气线虫的成年肺线虫。这些幼崽年龄从新生到3周大不等，在美国佛罗里达州的大西洋和墨西哥湾沿岸均有发现。这一发现表明，与之前的推测相比，鲸类动物产前感染肺线虫的分布可能更广。
