  • Title: Data on the prevalence of tapeworm infestations in horses in The Netherlands.
    Author: Borgsteede FH, van Beek G.
    Journal: Vet Q; 1996 Sep; 18(3):110-2. PubMed ID: 8903145.
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of tapeworm infestations was investigated in 70 horses slaughtered in the period February 1994-July 1994. Most horses were half-breed, young (1.5-3 years), and in good condition. They were bought for slaughter by dealers on local markets, and their treatment history was therefore unknown. Tapeworm infestations were seen in 16 horses (23%). Fifteen (21%) had an infection with Anoplocephala perfoliata. One horse had a single specimen of Paranoplocephala mamillana. The average number of A. perfoliata was 45 and the highest number was 508.
