''Elaeophora elaphi'' is a nematode parasite found in the blood vessels of the liver in Red Deer (''Cervus elaphus'') in certain parts of Spain. The adult male measures 77 mm long and 549 µm wide, adult females are 91-109 mm long and 793-1049 µm wide, and microfilariae (in utero) are 225 µm long. Though adult ''E. elaphi'' induce lesions in the blood vessels, and appear to activate the local immune response, they seldom cause overt clinical symptoms in their hosts. ==Discovery and nomenclature==
''Elaeophora elaphi'' was first described in 1986, from specimens found in the hepatic blood vessels of Red deer (''Cervus elaphus'') from "Sierra Morena", Córdoba, Spain.〔Hernandez Rodriguez, S., F. Martinez Gomez, and P. Gutierrez Palomino (1986) "''Elaeophora elaphi'' n. sp. (Filarioidea: Onchocercidae) parasite of the Red Deer (''Cervus elaphus''), with a key of species of the genus ''Elaeophora''." ''Annales de Parasitologie Humaine et Comparée'' 61(4):457-463.〕 The "note added in proof" in that study mentions that similar worms were also found in sheep. Both male and female adults, as well as microcercariae dissected from the uterus of females were described.
