I worked on the parasite pressure on thé African civet in the place I was. I still need to identify this specie of larva.
Dear Diane..
The pictures are not clear. You should take a picture of the total body of the parasite. Then list in your question the scientific name of the host, the sight of infection and the habitat of the host. if you can prepare a permanent slides for the parasites, that is better. Good luck
your pictures are not clear , but i think it belong to nematoda
First of all identify by key. Another method is fecal culture, for example Harda and Murray culture for carnivores, which ultimately identify the cultured infant parasite and diagnose with their posterior end and tail.
@Alan Hecht, no eggs in this sample. But in others there were Toxoxara sp, Trichuris sp, Dipyllidium caninum, Isospora sp., strongyloides sp
