Abstract

Twenty-two yellow tree monitors (Varanus bengalensis) were trapped and transported from 5 provinces, namely Lampang, Phitsanulok, Kamphaeng Phet, Tak and Prachin Buri to look for the infective larvae stage of Angiostrongylus cantonensis. In 4 provinces all of the yellow tree monitors were infected with the infective stage larvae of A. cantonensis altogether. Twenty-one of the 22 yellow tree monitors (95.5%) in the five provinces were infected. Our results of this study extend our knowledge of natural prevalence of A. cantonensis in yellow tree monitors. The snail eating habit of the yellow tree monitor might possibly be the source of the larvae.

摘要

从南邦、彭世洛、甘烹碧、来兴和巴真这5个省份捕获了22只黄树巨蜥（孟加拉巨蜥），并将它们运送过来，以寻找广州管圆线虫的感染性幼虫阶段。在4个省份中，所有的黄树巨蜥都感染了广州管圆线虫的感染性阶段幼虫。这5个省份的22只黄树巨蜥中有21只（95.5%）被感染。我们这项研究的结果扩展了我们对黄树巨蜥体内广州管圆线虫自然感染率的认识。黄树巨蜥的食蜗牛习性可能是幼虫的来源。
