Strongylus Vulgaris
''Strongylus vulgaris'' (large strongyles), commonly known as the blood worm, is a common horse parasite in the phylum Nematoda. It looks like a long worm with a large biting mouth. They are usually reddish in color because of all the blood they take from the equine host. This nematode is considered to be one of the "most pathogenic" of the large strongyles subphylum and is distributed worldwide, wherever there are grassland and temperate environments.De Ley, P. & Blaxter, M. "Systematic Position and Phylogeny." ''The Biology of Nematodes''. Lee D. L. (Ed.). London & New York: Taylor & Francis, 2002. 1-30. Background information During the infective stage of the ''S. vulgaris'' life cycle, the larvae that have matured in the intestinal tract of the horse will migrate into the surrounding blood vessels. Once in the blood vessels, the larvae will continue their migration throughout the body to various organs causing damage to the blood vessels along the way. This can cause anemia ...
