dc.description.abstract
Tungiasis ensues from the penetration and burrowing of female sand fleas
(Tunga spp.; Siphonaptera: Tungidae) in the skin of mammals. There are few
case reports of severe tungiasis in goats and in these cases the Tunga species
were not in most cases clearly identified. Two cases of severe tungiasis
caused by Tunga penetrans in goat kids from tungiasis-endemic rural Uganda are
reported. These are the first severe cases of tungiasis in goats reported from
outside South America.
