Oesophagostomum dentatum, the nodule worm, is a common parasite of domestic and feral pigs worldwide. Swine (Sus scrofa) is the only host and harbors the pre-adult and adult stages in the large intestines, especially the caecum. Eggs and early larval stages (L1 to L3) can be found in the environment.
