Genus Eustrongyloides Jagerskiold, 1909
Eustrongyloides excisus Jägerskiöld, 1909 larva
A rare species found in single specimens in the abdominal muscles of pike and pike perch in two lakes by S.S. Shulman (1949). Eustrongylides have indirect life cycles involving a definitive host and two intermediate hosts. Definitive hosts are aquatic birds mostly Family Ardeidae , Anseriformes, Gaviiformes and Pelecaniformes . First intermediate hosts are water oligochaetes of the Tubifіcidae and Lumbriculidae families, as well as Limnodrilus spp. and second- benthophagous fish. Reptiles, amphibians and mammals can be infected accidentally ( Paperna 1974, Lichtenfels & Stroup 1985, Youssefi et al. 2020). Infected fish show symptoms such as aberrant behavior, convulsions and surfacing ( Coyner et al. 2001).
