We examined 438 fresh skulls of pine marten () from Germany to check for the presence of the cranial trematode . The parasite was detected in the frontal sinuses of one 3-year-old road-killed male from the Rhoen Mountains (Thuringia). We detected 19 adult and 34 eggs. The infested pine martens showed no deformations or lesions of the skull. This is the first time that specimens of the trematode were recovered from a pine marten from Germany, but the low prevalence of 0.23% confirms that the pine marten is only a rare host of .
我们检查了438个来自德国的松貂(Martes martes)新鲜头骨,以检查是否存在颅吸虫(Cranial trematode)。在一只来自罗恩山(图林根州)的3岁雄性路杀松貂的额窦中检测到了这种寄生虫。我们检测到19条成虫和34枚虫卵。受感染的松貂头骨没有变形或损伤。这是首次从德国的松貂身上发现这种吸虫的标本,但0.23%的低感染率证实松貂只是这种吸虫的罕见宿主。
