The parasitofauna of the European otter (Lutra lutra) remains poorly known in Poland. In the presented study 106 fecal samples from otters living in the Białowieza Primeval Forest were examined, using standard flotation and sedimentation methods. We found that the overall prevalence of parasitic infections was 30.1%. Eggs of Alaria alata (0.9%), Opistorchis or Metorchis sp. (5.7%), Diphyllobothrium latum (1.9%) and Aonchotheca putori (1.9%) were identified, but in other cases the species of parasite could not be reliably determined. Parasitological dissections should give better results in future studies.
在波兰,欧洲水獭(Lutra lutra)的寄生动物区系仍鲜为人知。在本研究中,我们使用标准浮选法和沉淀法,对生活在比亚沃维耶扎原始森林中的水獭的106份粪便样本进行了检测。我们发现,寄生虫感染的总体患病率为30.1%。已鉴定出翼形吸虫(Alaria alata,患病率0.9%)、后睾吸虫或前睾吸虫属(Opistorchis or Metorchis sp.,患病率5.7%)、阔节裂头绦虫(Diphyllobothrium latum,患病率1.9%)和普氏管圆线虫(Aonchotheca putori,患病率1.9%)的虫卵,但在其他情况下,无法可靠地确定寄生虫的种类。寄生虫学解剖在未来的研究中应该会得到更好的结果。
