Paramphistomum microbothrium was well known like parasites of domestic large and small ruminant, especially cattle. In Serbia they occurred in small ruminants and cattle. Our examination we performed in period 1996-1997. at hunting ground located at Northwest part of Vojvodina near by Danube flown. From six hunting deer (Cervus elafus) examined by necropsy, paramphisomidae parasites were found at 4 animals. Numerous adult parasites were occurred in rumen (more than 250 per animals), but they also occur in reticulum and omasus in smaller number. Find parasites of genus Paramphistomidae were determinate using key given by Nesmark (1937), Vishnyakov (1980) and Samnaliev (1981) which use type of matter of acetabulum from determination of genus and matter of atrium genital and acetabulum to determination of paramphistomidae species. After microscopic examination we concluded that occurred paramphistomided belonging to the species Paramphistomum microbothrium (Fischoeder 1901). Our results present a first occurrence of P. microbothrium at deer (Cervus elafus) in Serbia.
(Phasianus colchicus L.)
Coccidiosis has an important place in the pathology of pheasants (Phasianuis colchicus L.) in free domicile and artificial breeding condition. During examination performed on a numerous pheasantries, in period 1990-2003, were examined a total of 2073 pheasants chicks, 1893 pheasants to10 week old and 1432 adult pheasants. The following species of genus Eimeria were found: Eimeria colchici, E .phasiani and E. duodenalis. The intensity and extensity of infection were highest at 2-6 weeks old pheasants with high rate of mortality. In up to 2 weeks old chicks were not found infection. Infection with Eimeria species, without clinical signs, was found in adult pheasants.
