During necropsy of a specimen of Lagothrix cana (É. Geoffroy, 1812) (Primates: Atelidae) from the Brazilian Amazon, pinworms were found in the large intestine. The intensity of infection was 64 parasites (17 males and 47 females) and there were no gross pathological changes related to parasitism. After morphological analysis the parasites were identified as Trypanoxyuris (Paraoxyuronema) lagothricis (Buckley, 1931) (Nematoda: Oxyuridae). This is the first record of this oxyurid species in primates in Brazil.
在对一只来自巴西亚马逊地区的灰绒毛猴(Lagothrix cana,É. Geoffroy,1812年)(灵长目:蜘蛛猴科)标本进行尸检时,在其大肠中发现了蛲虫。感染强度为64条寄生虫(17条雄性和47条雌性),且未发现与寄生虫感染相关的明显病理变化。经过形态学分析,这些寄生虫被鉴定为拉氏锥尾线虫(Trypanoxyuris (Paraoxyuronema) lagothricis,Buckley,1931年)(线虫纲:尖尾科)。这是该尖尾科物种在巴西灵长类动物中的首次记录。
