Resumen:
A total of 111 samples (43 faeces and 79 gastrointestinal tracts) of 14 wild carnivore species from 12 Argentine provinceswere analyzed. Helminth eggs were identified in 73% of the faecal samples and adult worms were recovered from 81%of the gastrointestinal tracts. We found 19 helminth species. Among the most frequent findings were parasites of domesticcarnivores, namely Toxocara canis, Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina, Ancylostoma caninum, Ancylostoma tubaeformeand Uncinaria stenocephala. In addition, new hosts are reported for 6 nematode species and 5 helminth species are recordedfor the first time in Argentina: Aonchotheca putorii, Molineus brachiurus, Cyathospirura chevreuxi, Physalopterapraeputialis and Oncicola martini.
