Abstract

Gnathostoma adult worms were found in the stomachs of domestic pigs in the Republic of Palau, with a prevalence of 0.7 % (2/277) in the meat inspections conducted between 2020 and 2022. Based on morphological characteristics and nucleotide sequence analysis, the worms were identified as the adult stage of Gnathostoma doloresi Tubangui, 1925 (Rhabditida: Gnathostomatidae). These findings suggest the presence of this zoonotic nematode in Palau, which warrants further surveillance to determine its route of transmission in this island country.

帕劳共和国家猪中的 Gnathostoma doloresi，2020-2022 年。

帕劳共和国在2020年至2022年期间进行的肉类检查中，在家养猪的胃中发现了钩端螺旋体成虫，感染率为0.7%（2/277）。根据形态特征和核苷酸序列分析，这些蠕虫被鉴定为 Gnathostoma doloresi Tubangui, 1925（Rhabditida: Gnathostomatidae）的成虫阶段。这些发现表明帕劳存在这种人畜共患病线虫，需要进一步监测，以确定其在这个岛国的传播途径。
