Adult of L. serrrata parasitize the nasopharynx of canids. Con­suming raw glandular material of infected intermediate hosts (camel, sheep, cattle, goat, etc.) can infect human. In Iran, two-humped camel is merely found in cold regions (Ardabil and East Azarbijan provinces) and is in danger of extinc­tion. A seven-year-old two-humped male camel, due to car accident injury was sent to slaughterhouse of Tabriz, Iran. In meat inspection practice, the visceral organs were taken out. A small red nodule having a white center was observed at the surface of the left lobe of lung. To study more, the whole of the left lobe of lung was sent to the parasitology labora­tory. One nymph of L. serrata was separated from the specimen. This is the first report of infection with L. serrate of two-humped camel in Iran. https://ijpa.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijpa/article/view/91 https://ijpa.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijpa/article/download/91/90
