Taenia martis in an Alaotran gentle lemur (Hapalemur alaotrensis): The importance of molecular identification

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract The cestode Taenia martis is a common parasite affecting mustelids, with rodents serving as intermediate hosts. However, infections with the larval stage have seldomly been described in primates. This report describes a case in an Alaotran gentle lemur (Hapalemur alaotrensis) that died of chronic kidney disease, and in which Taenia ...

Morphometrical and molecular identification of Echinococcus granulosus genotypes in wild canids in north of Iran

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.
This study reveals minor genetic variations and high genetic similarity among the Echinococcus granulosus populations in Iran and other countries, indicating a global genetic connectivity and international dispersion of this parasite. Therefore, global cooperation is essential for its control.
