Large lungworms (Nematoda: Dictyocaulidae) recovered from the European bison may represent a new nematode subspecies [PDF]
Although the Dictyocaulus lungworm, the agent of dictyocaulosis, is one of parasitological threats to European bison, its systematic position remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the morphological features of the lungworm and the

A case of mortality in a re-introduced European bison associated with severe pneumonia caused by Dictyocaulus viviparus [PDF]
Background Dictyocaulosis is a parasitic disease caused by pulmonary nematodes from genus Dictyocaulus affecting various ungulate hosts. It can cause verminous bronchopneumonia and for heavily infected individuals, fatal outcomes can occur.

Bovine dictyocaulosis. Pattern of infection and the prevention of parasitic bronchitis. [PDF]
A combined epidemiology and control investigation was performed with parasite-free calves turned out in May on a permanent pasture naturally contaminated with lungworm larvae the previous year. Before the start the field was divided into two plots. One plot was grazed by 12 calves after the first week of May.
