- Abstract
The article presents two different cases of Enteritis caused by Cylicospirura heydoni infection in two Tasmanian pademelons. In first case the Parasitological examination confirmed their identity as Cylicospirura heydoni based on their size, the demonstration of lateral alae and features of the buccal capsule. Presence of C heydoni observed in Serological testing revealed high presence of Toxoplasma gondii. Hence Toxoplasmosis may be the cause of apparent neurological signs in second case.
