Title: Description of Trichuris travassosi n. sp. (Nematoda: Trichurinae) from a Brazilian rodent, by light and scanning electron microscopy. Author: Gomes DC, Lanfredi RM, Pinto RM, De Souza W. Journal: Mem Inst Oswaldo Cruz; 1992; 87 Suppl 1():1-10. PubMed ID: 1343784. Abstract: A new species of a trichurid nematode Trichuris travassosi n. sp., recovered from a wild rodent in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, is described and compared to T. myocastoris (Enigk, 1933) and their differentiation was on the basis of a detailed morphometrical study. Oryzomys nigripes (Olfers, 1818) is a new host record for the genus. The denomination spicular prepuce is proposed to designate the structure previously named spicular sheath and, conversely, spicular sheath to indicate the cuticle that covers the spicule.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
