Morphology:
Large buccal Intestinal tract capsule with cutting
plates or teeth.
Medium size, thick body
Male
: bursate,
Female
: oviparous.
Sit of infection
: intestine
Life Cycle
: Direct
1- Larvae on the ground ingested or penetrate skin.
2- Larvae may be sequestered in tissues of host.

Ancylostoma caninum
General characteristics:
-occure in the small intestine.
-the host; dog, fox , wolf and other wild carnivores
.rarely in man.
-its cosmopolitan in distribution,being common in
tropical and sub tropical zones in north America
,Australia and Asia.
-The male is 10-12mm long and the female 14-16 mm
long.
-The worms are fairly rigid and gray or reddish in
color, depending on the presence of the blood in
the alimentary tract.
Bunostomum
sp.
General characteristics
-Is a hookworm which occur in the small intestine
(ileum and jejunum).
-the host; sheep and goat, The male is 12-17 mm long
and the female 19-26 mm.
-The anterior end is bent in a dorsal direction, so that
the buccal capsule opens anterodorsally
-There are pair of chitinus plates, near its base is a
pair of small sub ventral lancets.
Bunostumum
sp.
:
(A): anterior region with teeth, (B): posterior region
of male with copulatory bursa, (C): ovum
A
B
C
Cutaneous larva migrans
This condition may be compared with V.L.M. It
occurs in human and other hosts and is caused by
the larvae of nematodes which inter the skin and
migrate in it ,caused papules and inflamed tracks
,sometimes with thickening of the skin and pruritus.
The nematodes whose larvae may cause it:
A.caninum , A.braziliense, Uncinaria stenocephala,
A.duoddenale, B.phlebtomum, Strongyloides
spp.
and
Gnthstoma
spp.
Superfamily: Trichostrongyloidea
Morphology
:
-
Small, slender digestive tract body, simple mouth,
small buccal cavity, male bursate, while, female
oviparous.
-
Life cycle
: Direct. Larvae on the ground ingested
-
Sit of Infection
: Digestive tract
Commone Genera:
Trichostrongylus, Ostertagia, Nematodirus,
Haemonchus, Obeliscoides.
Haemonchus contortus
Haemonchus
represent the most economically
important helminthes parasites in cattle, sheep, and
goats occurs in nearly all subtropical and temperate
areas of the world. Adult worms are attached to
abomasal mucosa and feed on blood, which
causes an anemia and eventually can lead to death,
making
H. contortus
one of the most pathogenic
nematodes of ruminant.
