Abstract
A total of 149 specimens of jerboas from different localities in Tunisia were surveyed for helminth parasites. The host species were Jaculus jaculus (n = 50), J. orientalis (n = 50) and J. deserti (n = 49). Jerboas examined herein were characterized by a poor richness of parasites where a total of three cestodes and none of nematodes and trematodes were found. The helminth cestodes recovered here were Raillietina trapezoides (Janicki, 1904), Catenotaeniidae and Inermicapsifer sp. This study was the first report on helminths of J. deserti.
