Resumo: This study evaluated the gastrointestinal parasitism by protozoa in captive howler monkeys (Alouatta sp.) in the city of Santa Maria, RS. Fecal samples from eight monkeys of the Alouatta caraya and Alouatta guariba species were analyzed by the zinc sulfate centrifugal flotation method. Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts were observed in the feces of all the studied animals, three of which having mixed infection with Giardia spp. cysts. Analyzing the water offered to the primates it was detected elevated presence of Cryptosporidium sp. oocysts and rare oocysts of other coccidium. In conclusion, A. caraya and A. guariba monkeys, kept in captivity, are hosts for Giardia and Cryptosporidium genus. KEY WORDS:  Alouatta sp., Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia spp., howler monkey.

Foram analisadas amostras de fezes de oito macacos das espécies Alouatta caraya e Alouatta guariba, pelo método de centrífugo-flutuação com sulfato de zinco. Observaram-se oocistos de Cryptosporidium spp. nas fezes de todos os animais pesquisados, sendo que em três deles havia infecção mista com cistos de Giardia spp. Analisando a água oferecida aos primatas detectou-se a presença elevada de oocistos de Cryptosporidium sp. e raros oocistos de outro coccidio. Conclui-se que os macacos A. caraya e A. guariba, mantidos em cativeiro, são hospedeiros dos gêneros Giardia e Cryptosporidium.PALAVRAS-CHAVES: Alouatta sp., bugio, Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia spp.Universidade Federal de Goiás2009-07-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresNota Científicaapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/138210.5216/cab.v10i2.1382Brazilian Animal Science/ Ciência Animal Brasileira; Vol. 10 No. 2 (2009); 669-672Ciência Animal Brasileira / Brazilian Animal Science; v. 10 n. 2 (2009); 669-6721809-68911518-2797reponame:Ciência animal brasileira (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/1382/4862da Silva, Aleksandro SchaferGRESSLER, Luciana TOUREMLara, Valéria MariaMonteiro, Silvia GonzalezCarregaro, Adriano Bonfiminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2009-07-03T14:37:09Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/1382Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/vetPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/oai||revistacab@gmail.com1809-68911518-2797opendoar:2024-05-21T19:54:55.221438Ciência animal brasileira (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)true
