A total of 250 wild sheep (Ovis orientalis) from different national parks and protected regions of Iran were examined for gastrointestinal nematodes at necropsy. Twenty five species of nematodes were found. Marshallagia marshalli, Ostertagia spp; Nematodirus spp; and Skrjabinema ovis were the most prevalent. Although all the species found are recorded from wild sheep for the first time in Iran, 88% were reported previously from domestic sheep. New host and distribution records for Nematodirus davtiani, N. gazellae and Nematodirella longissimespiculata were established during the present study.
对来自伊朗不同国家公园和保护区的250只野生绵羊（东方盘羊）进行了尸检，以检查其胃肠道线虫。共发现25种线虫。马歇尔马歇尔线虫、奥斯特他属线虫、细颈线虫属线虫和绵羊斯克里亚宾线虫最为常见。虽然在伊朗首次从野生绵羊中发现了所有这些线虫种类，但其中88%曾在之前的家羊中被报道过。在本研究中确定了达夫蒂尼细颈线虫、瞪羚细颈线虫和长刺小细颈线虫的新宿主和分布记录。
