Willis-Mollay and Sedimentation methods indicated Ancylostoma spp. eggs in 87.8% (29\/33) dogs and 94.2% (49\/52) cats. The species A. caninum and A. braziliense were found in 63.6% (21\/33) and 30.3% (10\/33) of dogs, respectively. Considering cats, 67.3% (35\/52) were parasitized by A. braziliense, 21.1% (11\/52) by A. caninum, and 9.6% (5\/52) by A. tubaeforme. Forty-two canine fecal samples were collected from public environments, including 23 squares\/gardens and 19 streets\/sidewalks. Positive samples for Ancylostoma spp. accounted for 64.3% (27\/42); squares\/gardens had 60.9% (14\/23) positive samples, and streets and sidewalks, 68.4% (13\/19). No association was observed between the number of Ancylostoma spp parasites and age, sex and breed of the animals and also the ratio of EPG counts and the parasitic intensity observed at necropsy (p &gt; 0.05). Based on the high occurrence of hookworm in dogs and cats in this study, the treatment with anti helminthics are needed even in those animals with negative stool tests, besides adopting control of the number of animals in public places, in order to decrease the likelihood of environmental contamination, since this parasite represents a potential hazard to human and animal health.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s0036-46652011000400001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,4]],"date-time":"2017-02-04T09:50:26Z","timestamp":1486201826000},"page":"181-184","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Occurrence of Ancylostoma in dogs, cats and public places from Andradina city, S\u00e3o Paulo state, Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Willian Marinho Dourado","family":"Coelho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alessandro Francisco Talamini do","family":"Amarante","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UNESP, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juliana de Carvalho","family":"Apolin\u00e1rio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UNESP, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Natalia Marinho Dourado","family":"Coelho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UNESP, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katia Denise Saraiva","family":"Bresciani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UNESP, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"284","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetpar.2009.11.027","article-title":"Intestinal helminths of feral cat populations from urban and suburban districts of Qatar","volume":"168","author":"Abu-Madi MA","year":"2010","journal-title":"Vet Parasitol","ISSN":"https:\/\/id.crossref.org\/issn\/0304-4017","issn-type":"print"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"139","article-title":"A survey of helminths in domestic cats in the Pretoria area of Transvaal, Republic of South Africa.
