Parasitic infection is a major cause of losses in livestock production including camel in the tropical countries. A three year old male camel was presented to the Veterinary Clinical Complex, Veterinary College and Research Institute, Tirunelveli with a history of dullness, depression, diarrhea for the past one week. Haematological examination revealed eosinophilia. The faecal sample was collected for identification of intestinal parasitism. Coprology revealed heavy infection of Trichuris globulosa and presence of Trichostrongyles spp. Fenbendazole at the dose rate of 20mg/kg b.wt was given as an initial dose followed by 10mg/kg b.wt twice in three weeks and the animal had recovered completely post treatment.

Chhavi Gupta P Kowsalya K. Dhandapani R Ramprabhu

A Spotted Owlet weighing150 gram was presented to the Veterinary Clinical Complex, Veterinary College and Research Institute, Tirunelveli by the forest department of Tirunelveli District, Tamil Nadu with the history of dullness and lateral recumbency. Physical examination of bird revealed presence of numerous red and black colour ectoparasites all over the body with blanched conjunctival mucous membrane. Ectoparasites, faecal sample and blood samples were collected for detailed examinations followed by intravenous fluid therapy and immunomodulators. Faecal examination revealed presence of larvated eggs and the ectoparasites were identified as Dermanyssus gallinae. Haematological examination revealed hypohaemoglobinemia with eosinophilia. Bird was treated with 0.2% Ivermectin oral solution @200µgm/kg body weight as a single dose, but the bird collapsed. On postmortem examination sex of the bird was identified as female with multiple diffuse haemmorhages and numerous tiny worms on proventriculous and gizzard. According to the key diagnostic features for endoparasites in avians, the parasite was identified as Dispharynx spiralis. This paper reports about the concurrent infestation of Dispharynx spiralis and of Dermanyssus gallinae in a spotted owlet.

E. Venkatesakumar R Ramprabhu Enbavelan Pa Ramkumar Pk K. Mohanambal

Turkey pox is economically important disease and is caused by Avipox virus of the family Poxviridae. An outbreak of turkey pox in a turkey farm was recorded. 41 turkey poults showed droopiness, ruffled feathers, reduced appetite and body weight, fever and nodular lesions on head, face and neck. The size of the nodular lesions were between 3 mm to 6 mm diameter. Histopathological examination of the nodular lesions showed intracytoplasmic eosinophilic inclusion bodies. Affected birds were treated with oral and topical ethno-veterinary herbal preparations. Oral paste was prepared with Cumin seeds (Cuminum cyminum), garlic pulp (Allium sativum), black pepper (Piper nigrum), turmeric power (Curcuma longa), leaves of Moringa oleifera, Azadirachta indica and Ocimum sanctum. Topical application was prepared from leaves of Ocimum sanctum, Azadirachta indica, Moringa oleifera, garlic cloves, turmeric powder, seeds of cumin and camphor (Cinnamomum camphora) were mixed and ground well and was heated with 100 ml of castor oil (Ricinus communis seed oil) and 100 ml of neem oil (A. indica seed oil).
