The present work was carried out to study the histopathological changes in the intestine of Capra hircus, naturally infected with the Anoplocephalidean cestode, Stilesia pandeyae. It has been seen that the cestode Stilesia pandeyae approach the villi floating in the lumen, some worms are seen attached to the tissues of the intestine, the villi of crypts of liberkuhn are ruptured, destructed and shifted apart by the penetrating the worm. Not much effort is put by the parasite to survive in the intestine and the scolex is not so much helpful. It seems that the environment of the intestine is quite favourable for the worm Stilesia Railliet, 1893 which is rich in protein, glucose and fat content. So the worm finds it easy to absorb the same through tegument for growth and nourishment.

Abstract


The present work was carried out to study the histopathological changes in the intestine of Capra hircus, naturally infected with the Anoplocephalidean cestode, Stilesia pandeyae. It has been seen that the cestode Stilesia pandeyae approach the villi floating in the lumen, some worms are seen attached to the tissues of the intestine, the villi of crypts of liberkuhn are ruptured, destructed and shifted apart by the penetrating the worm. Not much effort is put by the parasite to survive in the intestine and the scolex is not so much helpful. It seems that the environment of the intestine is quite favourable for the worm Stilesia Railliet, 1893 which is rich in protein, glucose and fat content. So the worm finds it easy to absorb the same through tegument for growth and nourishment.
