ABSTRACT
871 mesenteric lymph nodes taken from 110 native cattle from Urmia slaughter-house with different ages were examined for Linguatula serrata infection. The lymph nodes were studied based on their colour and consistency. 44% of the cattle were found positive for L. serrata infection. The number of parasites isolated from each infected lymph node varied from 1 to 69 with a mean of 5.48. There were no significant differences in the number of parasites in different age groups. The study underlined the need for a more thorough investigation of mesenteric lymph nodes inspection in the cattle of this region
