摘要: Uncinaria spp. were recovered from the milk of California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) collected the: (1) teats a cow just after parturition (one parasitic third-stage larva, L3), (2) stomach her nursing pup (two and (3) dead about 2 days old L3, one headless, probably four L4) on San Miguel Island, in May 2001. This, addition to earlier research, indicates transmammary transmission hookworms this host. found northern fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) intestines 75 pups (either or two adult specimens each infected pup) ventral abdominal blubber 3 78 subadult males seven L3 seal) St. Paul Island (SPI), Alaska July August These findings verify low current prevalence SPI. Rectal fecal samples taken 50 live Steller lion (Eumetopias jubatus) pups, 1 month old, Rogue Reef Curry County, Oregon 2001, all negative for eggs The apparent zero infection rate these is possibly because rocky terrain rookery not suitable hookworm transmission.
