  • Title: [Libyostrongylus douglassii in ostriches (Struthio camelus ssp.) in the Netherlands: case report and review].
    Author: Landman WJ, Bronneberg RG.
    Journal: Tijdschr Diergeneeskd; ; 126(14-15):484-7. PubMed ID: 11510368.
    Abstract:
    Several types of worms can parasitize ostriches, the most pathogenic of which is the wire worm (Libyostrongylus douglassii). This worm, which occurs in the stomach, can cause severe lesions which can lead to a high mortality, especially among young birds. This article describes mortality due to this parasite on an ostrich farm and discusses relevant literature on L. douglassii.
