Sumari: | The mollusk Achatina fulica popularly known as "African snail" is an exotic species considered one of the 100 worst invasive species, causing damage to health and the environment. Due to the unsuccessful introduction, it was released and is currently found in almost the entire national territory. In addition to the environmental and economic damage, it is in public health, being responsible for the transmission of important zoonoses, and may host nematodes such as Angiostrongylus cantonensis, A. costaricensis, and others such as Aelurostrongylus abstrusus, Rhabiditis sp. survey of helminths through artificial digestion of the mollusks collected in Campo Grande/MS, in addition to the application of a questionnaire to the local population. The collected snails were taken to the laboratory and then artificial digestion was performed using 0.7% HCl. Of the 121 processed snails, 61.15% were infected with nematode larvae. The third stage larvae were classified according to their morphology, identified as Aelurostrongylus abstrusus and Rhabiditis sp., both of medical-veterinary importance, becoming a relevant factor for observation of the parasite-host relationship due to the anthropized environment where they are located. |
