Definition
English
:
An ascarid nematode found primarily in the small
intestine
of the larger
Felidae
as well as dogs and cats. It differs from
TOXOCARA
in that the larvae do not migrate through the lungs. It does occasionally produce visceral
larva migrans
(
LARVA MIGRANS
, VISCERAL) in man, although more rarely than does
Toxocara.
