| 中文描述 | 舌狀蟲是一種偽環狀,沒有腳的節肢動物最長可長到15公分長.藉由狗吃了其幼蟲的中間宿主(在鼻道裡成熟)而遷移到狗的身上.感染通常是沒有症狀的,但是也是有臨床的症狀被紀錄下來.診斷是藉由用耳鏡來檢查是否有寄生蟲存在於鼻道之內,或是觀察鼻子分泌物中是否有寄生蟲的蟲卵. |

| 英文描述 | LINGUATULA SERRATA is a pseudo-annulated, legless arthropod which can be up to 15 cm long. Following migration through a dog which has eaten an intermediate host the larvae mature in the nasal passages. Infection is usually subclinical but clinical signs have been reported. The diagnosis rests on seeing the parasite in the nasal passage with an otoscope or finding eggs in the nasal discharge or feces. |
