Nematodes of Sheep - Gastrointestinal Nematodes
Many worm species occur in the gastrointestinal tract of sheep, though relatively few are of importance in the UK. Primary pathogens include:
| Abomasum | Small Intestine | Large Intestine | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary Pathogens in the UK |
|
|
|
| Worms that contribute to ovine PGE, but are rarely primary pathogens in the UK |
|
|
|
- All the above worms belong to the Trichotrongyloidea except:
- Bunostomum (a hookworm)
- Oesophagostomum
- Chabertia (Strongyloidea)
- Strongyloides (Rhabditoidea)
- Trichuris (a whipworm)
- Although many different genera and species of worms may be found in the gastro-intestinal tract of sheep there are only three distinct disease manifestations within the PGE complex:
- Ostertagiosis and Trichostrongylosis
- Nematodirosis
- Haemonchosis
