Further records of helminths from Newfoundland mammals
One hundred and thirty-eight mammals of 16 species were examined for helminth parasites. A total of 45 animals (32%) of seven species were found to be infected with 18 species of helminths (8 species of cestodes, 10 of nematodes). Examination of canine and equine faecal samples revealed the presence...
