Helminthes in carnivorous mammals in Central Black Earth Nature Reserve
Abstract
Helminthological studies of carnivores in Central Black Earth Nature Reserve (Kursk region) are carried out. High degree of infection of carnivores with hel-minthes is determined. Helminth eggs have been detected in 98 % of animal fecal samples. More often eggs of cestodes, nematodes Capillariidae, Tosascaris leoni-na, Uncinaria stenocephala, trematodes Alaria alata have been found. In 94,1 % of foxes a mixed infection caused by A. alata, Capillaria spp., T. leonina, Toxocara sp., U. stenocephala and cestodes has been determined. Carnivores of martens fam-ily were infected with Capillaria spp. and cestodes. 4,9 % of foxes were infected with one helminth species. The most common helminthes in carnivores are Capil-laria spp. High density of carnivores in nature reserve may cause widespread hel-minthosis.
