We have 3,000+ parasite images, which can be searched by name (Genus Search) or appearance (Image Search). Created by Dr. Lance Wheeler. All images are fully copyrighted., but they may be used in educational lectures, presentations, or discussions of parasites and parasitic diseases.

These images are provided as teaching aids to train and educate veterinarians. There are about 400 images on this site. Liberties were taken with parasite grouping to provide a veterinary medical emphasis. The parasite image database is highly accessed and has been used by parasitologists and students all over the world. Here we provide an updated site to continue to support veterinary parasitology instruction. The images are available to anyone for educational use in lectures, presentations, or discussions of parasites and parasitic diseases. However, they should not be published or used for commercial purposes. Image credit: Trypanosoma cruzi by the University of Florida.
