Veterinary Helminthology 1st Edition

Pamela Oberem, Nick Kriek & Lucia Lange

Veterinary Helminthology for South Africa is intended primarily as a knowledge source for veterinarians and veterinary students in Africa. The first chapter presents an overview of veterinary helminthology - namely the lifecycles of the worms concerned, their epidemiology, interaction with hosts and general control methods. In chapter two, the helminths of specific animal groups are dealt with. Chapters three and four provide a summary of methods of diagnosis and identification, which will be useful to the specialist veterinary helminthologist and technician.
