Preliminary investigations on the parasite burden and distribution of endoparasite species of muskox (Ovibos moschatus) and caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) in West Greenland
In the autumn 1990 5 muskoxen and 5 caribou from Angujaartorpfiup Nunaa, West Greenland, were parasitologically examined. The findings included gastro-intestinal parasites as Eimeria spp., Ostertagia cir-cumcincta, Ostertagia trifurcata, Teladorsagia davtianiy Marshallagia marshalli, Nematodirella l...
