=== ''TRICHOSTRONGYLUS AXEI'' ===
==== General ====
*Small trichostrongyle, <5mm long; stomach.
==== Life-Cycle ====
*Typical non-migratory LC confined to stomach wall.
*Prepatent period = 3 1/2 weeks.
==== Pathogenicity ====
*Similar to ''Ostertagia'', except L3 penetrate mucosa between gastric glands. Leads to hyperplastic nodular lesions (several cms diameter) and erosions where epithelium is lost. Not usually a primary pathogen in horses.
