Abstract Equids are infected by a diversity of gastrointestinal nematode parasites, including 64 species equine strongyle nematodes from19 genera. Despite numerous surveys horse strongyles worldwide, certain geographic regions and rare remain understudied. In 1964, new strongyle, Cylicocyclus pekingensis , was described from donkey in China. Subsequently, this recorded horses Kazakhstan reclassified as Hsiungia (K’ung Yang, 1964), the only genus. Since then, H. has not been reported elsewhere, with limited knowledge on its distribution phylogeny. This study documents first record North America. Adult specimens were recovered fecal samples domestic Alberta, Canada, following treatment ivermectin. Species identification involved detailed morphological examination, complemented sequencing internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1), 5.8S rRNA gene, 2 (ITS2) nuclear genome. Phylogenetic analysis indicated close evolutionary relationship Poteriostomum Parapoteriostomum Nemabiome ITS2 paired pre-treatment sample also detected presence studied horse. Re-analysis public nemabiome datasets further feral but other considered. expands known enhances our placement phylogeny strongyles. Furthermore, re-analysis highlights value approach for studying global parasite species.
