Thirty-five swamp wallabies from Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, Australia were examined for parasites. Thirty-nine species of nematodes, five species of cestodes and eight species of arthropods were found. Wallabies from Queensland and northern New South Wales had a less diverse helminth fauna (23 species) than did wallabies from southern New South Wales and Victoria (32 species). Rugopharynx spp. and Cloacina spp. occurred in large numbers in the stomach but provoked no pathological changes. Known pathogenic species (Globocephaloides trifidospicularis and Hypodontus macropi) were encountered in small numbers only and did not produce any lesions. Pathological changes associated with parasites were: gastric nodules associated with Labiostrongylus clelandi and Parazoniolaimus collaris, bronchopneumonia due to Marsupostrongylus spp., biliary fibrosis associated with Progamotaenia festiva and fibrous peritonitis, pleuritis, pericarditis and eosinophilic splenitis due to Breinlia mundayi. Echinococcus granulosus was the only parasite found which also occurs in domestic animals.
对来自澳大利亚维多利亚州、新南威尔士州和昆士兰州的35只沼袋鼠进行了寄生虫检查。共发现39种线虫、5种绦虫和8种节肢动物。来自昆士兰州和新南威尔士州北部的沼袋鼠蠕虫动物群（23种）比来自新南威尔士州南部和维多利亚州的沼袋鼠（32种）种类更少。鲁戈咽属和泄殖腔属在胃中大量存在，但未引发任何病理变化。已知的致病物种（三叉球首线虫和大袋鼠低齿线虫）仅少量发现，未产生任何病变。与寄生虫相关的病理变化包括：与克莱兰唇圆线虫和科拉里斯副带线虫相关的胃结节、由于袋后圆线虫属导致的支气管肺炎、与节日原绦虫相关的胆汁纤维化以及由蒙代伊布赖恩线虫引起的纤维性腹膜炎、胸膜炎、心包炎和嗜酸性脾炎。细粒棘球绦虫是唯一一种在家畜中也存在的寄生虫。
