| Research Abstract |
The gullet worm (Gongylonema pulchrum Molin, 1857) has been recorded from a variety of mammals worldwide. Due to its wide host range, it has been suggested that the worm may be transmitted locally to any mammalian host by chance. To investigate this notion, the rDNA and cox-1 genes of G. pulchrumwere characterized using parasites from cattle, deer, monkeys and water buffaloes, etc. in Japan, Iran, Nepal and China. It is concluded that domestic and sylvatic transmission cycles of the gullet worm are present, and we should be aware of different parasite populations in each host animals.
