4.5. Perissodactyla

The knowledge of hookworm infections in this order is limited to parasite descriptions usually based on a few nematodes recovered from a single animal ( Khalil, 1922b). Within the perissodactyla, hookworms have been found in tapirs (Tapitus sp.) ( Travassos, 1937), and the black Rhinoceros ( Rhinoceros bicornis ) ( Table 13) ( Neveu-Lemaire, 1924).
