| dc.description.abstract | Dirofi lariasis is a zoonotic disease of domestic and wild carnivorous animals and humans. Subcutaneous migration of the parasite Dirofi laria repens Railliet & Henry, 1911 can lead to the local swellings with changeable localization. In humans, this parasite can cause the damage of lungs, male genitalia, and eyes. Th e range of D. repens is constantly spreading to new areas, and, considering the zoonotic potential of this parasite, it is important to widen the existing data concerning the morphology of D. repens. Present study provides the morphometric description of nematodes D. repens, obtained from subcutaneous tissue of dogs in Ukraine. Th e aim of this study was to make an accent on the key features for performing the identifi cation of parasites of this species. For males, 27 morphometric traits were identifi ed, characterising the total size of the body and the esophagus, the thickness of the cuticle in the region of the mouth opening, the localisation of the nerve ring and the cloaca, the morphological structure and metric parameters of the spicules, and the length of the tail. For females, 18 morphometric traits were identifi ed that, in addition to the common parameters, characterise cuticle thickness in the region of the vulva, localisation of the vulva and anus, body width in the regions of the anus and vulva, and tail length. Th is report widens the existing data on the morphological and metric characteristics of nematodes D. repens | |
