Abstract:

Postmortem examinations were made in 99 goats in Nimu County of Tibe, and parasites were collected and identified based on morphology. The collected parasites were categorized, and infection status was analyzed. The helminth infection rate was 100% among the goats, and all showed a pattern of mixed infection. The identified parasites belonged to 21 species, 15 genera, and 9 families. The Trichuris genus（36.4%） was the most prevailing among nematodes in the gastrointestinal tract; Paramphistomum cervi（60.6%） and Paramphistomum gotoi（60.6%） were predominant among trematodes detected; Cysticercus tenuicollis（52.5%） was the predominant cestode detected; and Orientobilharzia turkestanicum was the major parasite detected in the portal vein（69.7%）.
