[Helminth fauna of Syrian lambs].
A study of the helminth fauna of lambs in Syria was made on 40 gastrointestinal tubes and 500 lungs from animals slaughtered in the abattoir of Hama. The parasites isolated were 21 nematode species, 4 cestode species and 2 bladderworm species (Cysticercus tenuicollis and Echinococcus species). Nematodirus oiratianus, Moniezia benedeni and Neostrongylus linearis were found for the first time in lambs in Syria. A detailed description is given of morphologic characteristics of Nematodirus oiratianus.
