Abstract

D.dendriticum is known as the small liver fluke or “lancet fluke” of sheep and other herbivorous mammals. Human infections (not to be confused with the passive passage of eggs after eating infected liver!) have been diagnosed several times (Hunter et al., 1964; Spencer, 1973; Faust et al., 1975). The parasite has also been found in Macaca fuscata, M.speciosa, Pan troglodytes, Pongo pygmaeus, Semno- pithecus sp., Cercocebus sp.,Cercopithecus sp. and Papio sp. (Kuntz, 1972; Healy and Myers, 1973).
