The small intestine, large intestine, and cecum of 975 white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) from 83 localities in 13 southeastern states were examined for nematodes. In order of prevalence, the following parasites were found: Capillaria bovis, Eucyathostomum webbi, Monodontus louisianensis, Nematodirus odocoilei, Oesophagostomum venulosum, Trichuris sp, Cooperia punctata, Trichostrongylus longispicularis, Strongyloides sp, Cooperia oncophora, Cooperia spatulata, Cooperia sp, and Trichostrongylus calcaratus. Over one-half of the deer examined were free of intestinal nematodes, and most infected deer harbored few parasites. Of the most prevalent species, C bovis, N odocoilei, O venulosum, and Trichuris sp were widely distributed, whereas M louisianensis and E webbi were restricted in distribution. Severe pathogenicity was associated with only heavy Strongyloides sp infections in 2 penned deer. The findings of this study suggested that white-tailed deer of the Southeast are insignificant in the epizootiology of important intestinal nematodes of domestic livestock.
