Abstract

The study describes the occurrence of cysticercosis in liver of 22 wild agoutis (Dasyprocta leporina) in the Brazilian Amazon. The phylogenetic analysis and microscopic characteristics of metacestodes in liver tissue sections, associated with the geographic distribution of the intermediate hosts indicated that a possibly novel Taenia sp. metacestode caused the parasitism. Additionally, two cases of hepatic co-infection by Taenia sp., Calodium sp. and Echinococcus oligarthra were also observed among the analyzed animals. The results point to the need for a better understanding of hepatotropic parasites among wild rodents in the Brazilian Amazon.

巴西亚马孙河东部自由放养的阿古特鱼（Dasyprocta leporina）的囊尾蚴病。

该研究描述了巴西亚马逊河流域22只野生姬蛙（Dasyprocta leporina）肝脏中囊尾蚴病的发生情况。肝脏组织切片中的玄虫的系统发育分析和显微特征，以及中间宿主的地理分布表明，可能是一种新型的疟原虫引起了寄生。此外，在所分析的动物中还观察到两例由疟原虫、钙钠疟原虫和少棘球蚴共同感染肝脏的病例。研究结果表明，有必要更好地了解巴西亚马逊河流域野生啮齿动物中的肝寄生虫。
