Abstract:
:Drashia megastoma Rudolphi, 1819, Habronema muscae Carter, 1861 and Habronema microstoma Schneider, 1866 are found in the stomach of equine definitive hosts and are known to cause pathogenic effects in the stomach wall, skin, eye and occasionally other sites. These nematodes utilise either house flies or stable flies as their intermediate hosts. Apart from molecular findings that have demonstrated some of the differences between H. muscae and H. microstoma, no detailed morphological description of equine habronematid nematodes has been presented. This article describes most surface features of adult D. megastoma, H. muscae and H. microstoma using scanning electron microscopy and differentiates these nematodes based on morphological characteristics.
