Abstract |
Scanning electron microscopy of the intestinal parasites of jurará (kinosternon scorpioides, linnaeus, 1766) living free, the region to the west and southeast of the city of são luís The wildlife Maranhão is represented by the occurrence of reptiles as Kinosternon scorpioides, semi-aquatic turtle known locally as Muçuã or Jurará(Pereira, 2004). The genre Serpinema spp., are parasitic namatodes the small intestine of freshwater turtles, which become infected by ingestion of food called zooplankton or host Paratene. Aiming to understand and identify the morphology extern of the parasites of quelonium, justifies the importance of environment in the west and southeast of the city of São Luís-Maranhão, since, occupies a prominent place, because people have been captured this chelonians by the serving of food and income. The parasites found in the gastrointestinal tract of Jurarás were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, which has been a tool to complement the descriptions of epithelial lesions and parasites themselves. We examined the stomach and intestine of 10 males Jurarás from the the region to the west and southeast of Maranhão, after autopsy, the organs were removed and observed nine copies of nematodes in the small intestine, three males and six females. Only seven Jurarás were parasitized. The electron micrographs were specimens in a scanning electron microscope Leo 435 VP model ME. Simultaneously, the parasites were mounted and identified using an optical microscope, as Amato et al. (1987) and Freitas & Dobbin Jr. (1962), respectively. Specimens were observed Serpinema magathi segundo Sprehn (1932) & Yeh (1960) in the small intestine of Jurarás. In this study, we reported the external morphology of the parasites.
