Abstract

The relation between the egg counts by filtration-floatation technique and Anoplocephara infection rate was examind in 102 dewormed and 20 dead horses. While only 28 of 102 (27.5%) horses were positive for the egg before deworming, the tapeworms were excreted from 60 (58.8%) horses after treatment. Of the 20 dead horses, only 3 (15%) had the eggs in the rectal feces, but 17 (85%) horses were shown to have the tapeworms at necropsy. On the other hand, the egg-positive and-negative cases were examined for the tapeworm infection, revealing that those infected with about 40 worms or less shed no eggs in the feces. From these results, it was concluded that the egg-positeve rate was too low to see the actual rate of equine Anoplocephara infection.
