Selected Topics in Laboratory Animal Medicine. Volume VIII. Parasitology.
Abstract
The major parasites of laboratory animals are divided into eight groups: Insects, arachnids, pentastomes, acanthocephalids, unicellular parasites (protozoan), cestodes, trematodes, and nematodes. A broad review is presented of the major characteristics that delineate each of the eight groups of laboratory animal parasites, and examples are cited of some of the more common parasites in each group. A host-parasite list for several species of laboratory animals is included. (Author)
