Abstract:
Objective A field investigation of worm eggs in dog feces,classification of crabs and metacercaria infection were carried out in Nanbai Town of Zunyi County,Guizhou Province.Methods One or two villages were selected as the survey sites in Nanbai Town of Zunyi County and the local dogs and crabs were chosen as survey objects.Worm eggs in dog feces were detected using natural precipitation method.On the base of holotype,the classification of crabs was identified.Then,crabs were mashed and metacercaria were detected.Results From November 2014 to September 2015,through this survey in Xiejia Village and Longquan Administration Village,fifty-three fresh feces of dogs were collected and three worm eggs were detected,such as Dipylidium caninum egg,Toxocara canis egg and Spirometra mansoni egg.Forty-two crabs were caught,including fourteen female adults (two larvaes) and twenty-eight male adults (nine larvaes).All these crabs were identified as Sinopotamonzunyiense by morphological method and metacercaria was not detected.Conclusion Nanbai Town of Zunyi County only has Sinopotamonzunyiense;metacercaria is not detected,which means that this local area is not a Paragonimus epidemiological region;only three worm eggs are detected in dog feces.
