“…To evaluate the most representative specimens, the morphological structures of parasitic females were assessed in specimens of S. ophidiae recovered from untreated snakes, particularly from one snake that was euthanized at 21 DPI. Specific identification was performed according to the original description and others data from different authors (Pereira, 1929;Singh, 1954;Wiesman & Greve, 1982;Little, 1966;Navarro & Lluch, 1993;Vicente et al, 1993;Santos et al, 2010;Mati et al, 2013), and nematode specimens were deposited in the collection of the Department of Parasitology, UFMG (DPIC 2526 and 2527).…”

“…cruzi Rodrigues, 1968;and S. darevskyi Sharpilo, 1976. Since that time, new species of Strongyloides have been described (Navarro et al, 1989;Viney et al, 1991;Skerratt, 1995;Sato et al, 2007), including two new species from reptiles: S. ophiusensis Roca & Hornero, 1992and S. natricis Navarro & Lluch, 1993(Roca & Hornero, 1992Navarro & Lluch, 1993). Thus, the current number of valid Strongyloides species is approaching 60, though only eight of these species (approximately 14%) have been described in reptile hosts.…”

Durante un estudio parasitológico de anfibios semiacuáticos de la zona alto andina del Perú, 83 especímenes del género Telmatobius[T. jelskii (n= 56), T. marmoratus (n=17) y T. peruvianus (n=10)] fueron adquiridos de mercados de la ciudad de Lima, Perú donde se consume licuado de las ranas andinas con propósitos de medicina tradicional, durante los meses de abril del 2009 a septiembre del 2013. Según su estado de conservación de la UICN, T. peruvianus y T. marmoratus se encuentran en estado vulnerable (VU), mientras que T. jelskii se encuentra casi amenazada (NT). El análisis parasitológico incluyó la necropsia total de cada anfibio y búsqueda, colección, identificación y conteo estandarizado de su helmintofauna. Los nematodos dominaron en riqueza de especies y en porcentaje de individuos colectados (n = 6; 93,19%), seguido de los trematodos (n = 2; 4,94%), cestodos (n = 2, 1,46%) y finalmente los acantocéfalos (n = 2; 0,42%). Los tres helmintos con mayor importancia especifica en Telmatobius fueron los nematodos Hedruris moniezi y Aplectana hylambatis, y el trematodo Gorgoderina parvicava. La prevalencia y abundancia de parásitos del total y de las tres especies de Telmatobius no mostró asociación con la longitud del hospedero. Se observó relación entre el sexo de T. jelskii con la prevalencia de G. parvicava y de H. moniezi, y con la abundancia de H. moniezi. Haematoloechus pukinensis, Ophiotaenia sp., H. moniezi, Cosmocercidae gen. sp., Falcaustra mascula, Aplectana vellardi, Oncicola sp. y Centrorhynchus sp. son nuevos registros para T. jelskii. Ophiotaenia sp. es una nueva adición a la fauna helmintológica peruana. Oncicola es el primer registro parasitando anfibios en el Perú. Centrorhynchus sp. es el segundo registro en el Perú. T. peruvianus es un nuevo hospedero para A. hylambatis y F. mascula.

Proliferative strongyloidiasis in a colony of colubrid snakes

et al. 2023

Strongyloides are small rhabditid nematodes primarily associated with enteric disease in a variety of animal species, including reptiles. Strongyloides spp life stages were associated with a disease outbreak in a large breeding colony of snakes. Multiple Pantherophis and Lampropeltis colubrids exhibited respiratory distress, anorexia, stomatitis, facial deformation, and waning body condition that resulted in death or necessitated euthanasia. Postmortem examinations of 13 snakes revealed epithelial hyperplasia and inflammation of the alimentary and respiratory tracts associated with varying numbers of adult and larval nematodes and embryonated or larvated ova. In a subset of snakes, aberrant nematode migration was also observed in the eye, genitourinary system, coelom, and vasculature. Histomorphology and gross examination of parasitic adult female nematodes from host tissues were consistent with a Strongyloides spp. Sedimented fecal material from 101/160 (63%) snakes housed in the affected facility was positive for nematodes and/or larvated ova. Polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing of portions of the 18S and 28S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA) genes and the internal transcribed spacer region of adult female parasites and positive fecal samples supported the diagnosis of strongyloidiasis. Strongyloides spp possess a unique life cycle capable of alternating between parasitic (homogonic) and free-living (heterogonic) stages, resulting in the production of directly infective larvae. Commonly utilized husbandry practices in reptile collections can amplify the numbers of infective larvae generated in the captive environment, increasing the risk for rhabditid hyperinfections. This report documents morbidity, mortality, and non-enteric disease manifestations due to Strongyloides hyperinfections in a captive colubrid snake colony.
