    Author: Barroso P, Ruiz-de-Ybáñez R, Martínez-Carrasco C, Gens MJ, Escribano F, Sánchez A, Pérez JM.
    Journal: Parasitol Res; 2017 Jul; 116(7):2053-2055. PubMed ID: 28508162.
    Abstract:
    In spring 2016, we analyzed the skull of 44 aoudads (Ammotragus lervia) from Sierra Espuña Regional Park (SE Spain) for the presence of oestrid larvae. Oestrus ovis larvae were found in 27.3% of sampled hosts, with a mean intensity of 1.5 ± 6.1 larvae/per parasitized host (range 1-21). To our knowledge, this is the first report of oestrosis affecting this host species.
