Severe moniliformiasis (Acanthocephala: Moniliformidae) in a gray squirrel, Sciurus carolinensis, from Arkansas, USA

J Singleton, DJ Richardson, and JM Lockhart


ABSTRACT

Three hundred and seventy-five acanthocephalans, Moniliformis clarki, were removed from the small and large intestines of a gray squirrel from Arkansas County, Arkansas (USA). This is the first report of M. clarki from Arkansas. Enteric lesions, including distension, perforating ulcers, enteritis, crypt hypertrophy, goblet cell hyperplasia, and occlusions of the intestinal tract were observed, indicating the pathogenic potential of this parasite.
