Abstract

A white pelican, Pelecanus onccrotalus, was imported from Tanzania and died 5 days later in Daejeon zoo in Korea. The proventriculus of bird was found to contain parasites. The taxonomic status of the nematodes was studied by morphological and morphometric analysis using light and scanning electron microscopy. Only one species Contracaecum occurred in the proventriculus with high values of infection. Morphological characters of the parasite were as follows: The worms have three lips without cuticular dentigerous ridges, and well developed interlabia. The interlabia have a triangular shape, non-bifurcated. Males possess numerous preanal papillae (69-79 pairs) arranged in single subventral rows. Paracloacal papillae were separated 5 postanal papillae and 1 larger pairs. All the characters of the above studied specimens are very similar to those of C. rudolphii complex. Accordingly, the parasites from white pelican were identified belong to the C. rudolphii complex.

대전동물원에 탄자니아로부터 페리칸이 수입되었고 5일 후에 한 마리가 폐사 하였다. 선위에서 다수의 기생충을 분리하였으며 다음과 같은 특징을 가지고 있었다. 3개의 입술이 존재하였고 입술에는 치상돌기가 존재하지 않았으며 입술 사이에는 순간돌기가 잘 발달되어 있었다. 순간돌기는 삼각형으로 분기되어 있지 않았다. 수컷은 다수의 전항문 유두 (69-79)가 아복면에 배열되어 있었다. 부총배설강 유두는 대형의 1쌍과 5개가 존재하였다. 이러한 형태학적 특징을 기초로 페리칸에서 분리한 기생충을 Contracaecum rudolphii로 분류하였다.
