Adult forms of helminths are located free in the peritoneal cavity of its definitive host - cervids, while microfilariae are presented in the host\'s bloodstream. Intermediate hosts are represented by several mosquito species, mainly of the genus Aedes.Nematode S. tundra is well adapted to roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and therefore is the infection usually asymptomatic. In this study we present the first report of S. tundra in Slovakia.

OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.Setaria tundra je filarioidný parazit vyskytujúci sa na severnej pologuli. Dospelé formy helmintov sa voľne nachádzajú v peritoneálnej dutine ich definitívneho hostiteľa - jeleňovitých, zatiaľ čo mikrofilárie sú prítomné v krvnom obehu hostiteľa. Medzihostiteľmi sú viaceré druhy komárov, najmä rodu Aedes. Nematode S. tundra je dobre prispôsobený srnčej zveri (Capreolus capreolus), a preto je infekcia zvyčajne asymptomatická. V tejto štúdii uvádzame prvú správu o S. tundre na Slovensku.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishDuring a period 2022 a total of 6 roe deer coming from eastern Slovakia (Trebišov district) were examined. Nematodes were found during the evisceration process in the abdominal cavity of 3 specimens Intensity of infection was in range from 5 to 38 helminths per host. Mean intensity of infection reached 18.3 parasites per host. The helminths were identified as S. tundra by morphological examination and molecular typing of the COI gene. This study is the first report of S. tundra in Slovakia.
