Tissue Stages in the Development of Ascaridia numidae from the Guinea Fowl (Numida meleagris)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1973
Larval stages of Ascaridia numidae in guinea fowls did not migrate into the liver, lungs, or other internal organs of the host. Larvae were found associated with the mucosal surface of the jejunum and ileum walls on the 4th to the 12th days of the infection by use of the Baermann technique.
