Parasites and parasitism. Types of Parasitism. Commensalism, symbiosis and predatorism, Types of hosts: Final and Intermediate hosts, paratenic
hosts and reservoir hosts, natural and unnatural hosts. Host- parasite relationship; mode of transmission of parasites and methods of dissemination
of the infective stages of the parasite. Parasite specificity in relation to species,breed, sex and location. Tissue reactions caused by parasites to the
host. Resistance of hosts to parasitic infections/infestations. Immunity against parasitic infections. Standardized Nomenclature of Animal Parasitic
Diseases (SNOAPAD). General description of helminth parasites affecting domestic animals and birds.Classification of helminths. Characteristics of
phylum (Platyhelminthes, Nemathelminthes and Acanthocephala). Salient morphological features of diagnostic importance. Life cycle of the
helminths in relation to transmission, pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, general control measures of following helminthes of animals and birds.

(Paramphistomum, Cotylophoron, Gastrothylax, Gastrodiscus,Gigantocotyle, Gastrodiscoides, Pseudodiscus), Lung flukes(Paragonimus) and oviduct
flukes (Prosthogonimus),their importance in the diagnosis.
Cestodes:Metacestodes (bladder worm), Ruminant tape worms (Moniezia. Avitellina, Stilesia), Dog tape worms (Dipylidium, Taenia, Multiceps and
Echinococcus), Equine tape worms (Anoplocephala, Paranoplocephala), Poultry tape worms (Davainea, Cotugnia, Raillietina,Amoebotaenia) and
