Nematódeos filarídeos da família Onchocercidae são capazes de parasitar tecidos e cavidades de aves, dentre eles o trinca-ferro (Saltator similis) da ordem Passeriformes. A transmissão ocorre a partir da microfilária liberada através da picada do hospedeiro intermediário, como insetos e outros artrópodes hematófagos. O objetivo do presente estudo foi realizar análises morfológica e morfométrica de microfilárias em trinca-ferro, proveniente de apreensão e encaminhado à um Centro de Triagem de Animas Silvestres (CETAS). Foi confeccionado esfregaço sanguíneo de um trinca-ferro intensamente parasitado, onde foram observadas 605 microfilárias e, posteriormente, efetuadas imagens de 30 espécimes utilizando o microscópio OlympusBX51® e software CellSens Standard. O comprimento total do corpo foi, em média, de 158,89µm. A extremidade anterior (EA) de todos os espécimes apresentaram-se arredondadas com espaço cefálico curto (2,67µm de largura e 3,22µm de comprimento). O anel nervoso (AN) foi indicado a partir de um breve rompimento no sistema celular proximal à EA, e a distância até a EA foi, em média, de 34,09µm. O poro excretor (PE) foi identificado como uma abertura lateral curta e pálida, na região medial do corpo, e a distância média até a EA foi de 50,36µm. O poro anal foi semelhante ao PE, porém localizado próximo a extremidade posterior (EP), sendo a distância média até a EP de 27,03µm. A base da cauda foi delimitada no início do afunilamento do corpo, terminando pontiaguda, e medindo, em média, 18,91µm de comprimento e 2,32µm de largura. Os aspectos morfológicos apresentaram-se homogêneos tanto em coloração quanto em formato. A microscopia é uma técnica simples, de baixo custo e amplamente disponível na rotina, auxiliando no diagnóstico das microfilárias em aves. É possível que a identificação seja feita por características morfológicas e morfométricas através do esfregaço sanguíneo, porém com este método, é possível identificar apenas a nível de gênero devido a semelhança na morfologia das microfilárias. Apesar dos métodos moleculares permitirem a identificação de espécies de filarídeos aviários, apenas alguns possuem a caracterização molecular disponível. Assim, a associação de métodos diagnósticos é recomendada para que haja maior sensibilidade e especificidade a fim de identificar o filarídeo aviário na ave hospedeira. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
