Setaria labiato-papillosa

Also known as: Bovine abdominal filariosis

Hosts

Intermediate hosts: Mosquitoes

Definitive hosts: Cattle, buffalo and deer

Identification

They are long, thin, white worms, generally less than 12cm in length.

S. labiato-papillosa has an indirect life cycle. Larvae are produced by adult worms, and are present in the hosts blood. The mosquitoes become infected whilst feeding. The larvae develop in mosquitos and infect a new definitive host.

The prepatent period is 8-10 months.
