Is there competition between Haemonchus contortus and Haemonchus placei in a pasture grazed by only sheep?
2020, Veterinary ParasitologyCitation Excerpt :Information about H. placei occurrence in ruminant species other than cattle is scarce. However, infection has been reported in sheep and goats that share a pasture with cattle (Amarante et al., 1997; Jacquiet et al., 1998; Almeida et al., 2018). Following artificial infection, H. placei was able to established in sheep and goats (Santos et al., 2014a; Reiniger et al., 2017; Santos et al., 2019a), and H. contortus was able to establish in young cattle (Bassetto et al., 2011; Fávero et al., 2016).
High-throughput identification and quantification of Haemonchus contortus in fecal samples

2017, Gene ReportsCitation Excerpt :Taken together, these data show a high similarity between H. placei and H. contortus mt genomes. Traditionally, morphological features in the synlophe and spicule were used to distinguish these species (Jacquiet et al., 1998; Lichtenfels et al. 1994). Although there are currently no doubts about morphological aspects, van Wyk (2013) reported some mistakes occurring in morphological identification that led some authors to classify these species as the same.

2016, Advances in ParasitologyImmune response to Haemonchus contortus and Haemonchus placei in sheep and its role on parasite specificity
2014, Veterinary ParasitologyCitation Excerpt :This aspect is partially explained by the results obtained in the present study, which demonstrated that sheep repeatedly infected with H. placei acquire strong resistance against this parasite. In semi-arid environments with a low rate of infection, like Mauritania (Jacquiet et al., 1998), a threshold level of antigenic stimulation may not be reached and, in part, would explain hosts harbouring mixed infections. After a single infection, both H. contortus and H. placei may survive over one year inside of a host sheep.
