The occurrence of the plerocercoid larva, Sparganum of Sparganum spp. in two Russell's viper snakes maintained in Chennai snake park trust, Chennai is reported for the first time from Southern India. The cestode larvae were found in the sub cutis and were flat, solid, wrinkled, ribbon like creamy white in colour with peudosegmentation with anterior end possessing bothria. The cuticles, subcuticular cells and parenchymatous tissue stained by acetic alum carmine further confirmed the cestode larvae.
首次报道在印度南部钦奈蛇园信托所饲养的两条罗素蝰蛇体内出现了裂头绦虫属(Sparganum spp.)的裂头蚴。这些绦虫幼虫发现于皮下,呈扁平、坚实、有皱纹的带状,颜色为乳白,有假分节,前端有吸槽。经醋酸明矾卡红染色的角质层、皮下细胞和实质组织进一步证实了这些绦虫幼虫。
