The parasites were cleared with lactophenol and then investigated under the light microscopy and important morphological parts of parasites were measured. The parasites were identified as Diplotriaena monticola Yamaguty, 1935 (Fam.: Filariidae) under the subfamily of Diplotriaeninae. It is important because this case is the first report of this infection in a white-spectacled bulbul in Turkey.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAnimalsBird DiseasesFemaleMalePasseriformesSpiruridaSpirurida InfectionsTurkeyanimalanimal diseasearticlebird diseaseclassificationfemalehistologyisolation and purificationmalenematodenematodiasisparasitologysongbirdTurkey (republic)Article313215218179180632-s2.0-48849097135Q3
