摘要: The objective of this study was to determine the seasonal distribution and gastrointestinal nematode parasite load in crossbred Santa Ines tracer lambs, correlate rainfall during period with occurrences parasitic infections. Sixty-four male lambs between ages four eight months were used study. Two inserted into herd every 28 days pattern infective larvae available environment. Variation fecal egg count (FEC) nematodes observed at site, many samples containing undetectable loads dry season. identified coprocultures Haemonchus sp., Trichostrongylus Cooperia Strongyloides sp. Oesophagostomum recovered necropsy contortus, colubriformis, punctata, C. pectinata, Trichuris Skrajabinema ovis. total number immature adult forms from tracers showed distributions that significantly correlated amount received month (p value ≅ 0.000 all cases). species H. contortus predominant should be
