dc.description.abstract | The grazing diet allows the permanent contact of small ruminants with intermediate hosts and
the eggs and larval forms of the parasite. From these reason parasitic infections are present
worldvide in a large number of herds. Lungworms of domestic ruminants are nematodes that
belongs to the phylum Nemathelmenthes commonly named as round worms; classified under
the super family Trichostrongyloidea and Metastrongyloidea of which Dictyocaulus and
Protostrongylus are causes of lungworm infection in ruminants. They induce verminous
pneumonia which was a significant health problem of small ruminant. Due to their importance
in the pathology of small ruminants, in 2020 we conducted a survey of their presence in the
Belgrade area. Investigations included 23 herds. In total, 250 fecal samples were examined by
the Berman method. Determination of parasites was based on its morphological
characteristics.
Dictyocaulus filaria was ocurerd at 23.20% of small ruminants heards. The highest
prevalence is observed in the places where predominate flat plain pastures. Due to
microclimatic conditions, the infection usually occurs in the period April-May when the
largest number of animals are grazing. Clinically manifested disease occurs in kids and lambs
that are grazed for the first time in the second half of the grazing season. Protostrongylinae
are biohelminthes and need intermediate hosts for their development - snails and slugs. Due to
microclimatic conditions, the infection usually occurs in the March and April when the
largest number of intermediate host are preset at pasture. Protostrongylus rufescens occurred
on 21.22%. These nematodes live in bronchioles and alveoli. The prevalence ranges was from
4.23%. Based on the results obtained, we can conclude that a large number of sheep and goats in Belgrade are infected with pulmonary strongilides. Dictyocaulus filaria and
Protostrongylus rufescens are the dominant species, while Muellerius capillaris are present in
a smaller percentage. | sr |
