Abstract: This is the third part of a continuing series on helminths reported in waterfowl (McDonald 1974, 1981). The goal of these studies is complete coverage of waterfowl helminths of the world, although the original incentive--inadequate knowledge of the parasites of North America waterfowl--is less true now. World coverage is desirable because the world distribution of the family, tribes, and even many species of waterfowl often results in world distribution of parasites. |
