Faecal samples for detection of gastrointestinal parasites were collected from 60 donkeys from 6 villages in Marand, North-West of Iran. Faecal samples of 2 donkeys (3.33 %) were negative for parasite eggs. 48 positive donkeys (81.66 %) were infected with a single parasite type, 9 (15.51 %) and 1 (1.66 %) of donkeys had multiple infections with two and three parasites, respectively. The highest prevalence and intensity rate belonged to small strongyles. The overall prevalence of intestinal parasites eggs in the positive donkeys were: strongyles 100 %, (15.51 %), spp. 1.72 %. Larval identification showed that small strongyle larvae were most frequent (100 %) followed by (5.17 %), (35.71 %) and (26.66 %). This study revealed that donkeys in Iran are infected with a range of helminths, which are representatives of the important pathogenic parasites found in equids worldwide.
从伊朗西北部马兰德6个村庄的60头驴身上采集粪便样本,用于检测胃肠道寄生虫。2头驴(3.33%)的粪便样本寄生虫卵检测呈阴性。48头阳性驴(81.66%)感染了单一类型的寄生虫,9头(15.51%)和1头(1.66%)驴分别感染了两种和三种寄生虫。感染率和感染强度最高的是小型圆线虫。阳性驴肠道寄生虫卵的总体感染率为:圆线虫100%,(15.51%), spp. 1.72%。幼虫鉴定表明小型圆线虫幼虫最为常见(100%),其次是(5.17%)、(35.71%)和(26.66%)。本研究表明,伊朗的驴感染了多种蠕虫,这些蠕虫是世界各地马属动物中重要的致病性寄生虫的代表。
