Le Nématode Spiruride Gongylonema soricis Fain, 1955, décrit chez des Soricidae du Zaïre et du Ruanda-Urundi, est identifié chez les Musaraignes au Togo. Sa larve infestante est obtenue expérimentalement chez Periplaneta orientalis. Parmi les quatre types morphologiques définis dans le genre Gongylonema, la forme larvaire de G. soricis s’apparente au type G. brevispiculum.
Abstract
The spirurid nematode Gongylonema soricis Fain, 1955, the parasite of shrews from Zaïre and Ruanda Urundi has been identified in shrews from Togo. Its infective larva has been obtained experimentally from Periplaneta orientalis as intermediate host. The larval characteristics of G. soricis link it to the G. brevispiculum type, one of the four larval morphological types which have been classified in the genus Gongylonema.
