The study was conducted in 55 male goats approximately eight months of age. All were effectively drenched and then infected with approximately 10/4 infecting larvae of H. contortus. Twenty five days post infection, the plants were administered orally as a single dose in the form of a juice, using a gastroesophageal tube. The nine plants tested were ineffective in reducing number of adult H. contortus. Those that showed the best performance were A. squamosa and M. charantia. In a further experiment these plants were selected for testing in 40 male castred goats approximately eight months of age, naturally infected with gastrointestinaal nematodes. A. squamosa given us 1g/Kg for four consecutive days eliminated 51,90% of the adult population of Oesophagostomum columbianum, but was ineffective in eliminating H. contortus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis and Strongyloides papillosus. Momordica charantia administered us 2g/Kg for four consecutive days was ineffective in reducing the population of adult parasites. These results, allow us to conclude that the plants tested should not be used as the single medication for the control of gastrointestinal nematodes in goats.  aAnthelmintics  aBrazil  aGastrointestinal nematodes  aGoat diseases  aGoats  aMedicinal plants  aNematode control  aPhytotherapy  aSemiarid zones  aTrichostrongylus colubriformis  aAnnona Squamosa  aAnti-helmintico  aCaprino  aFitoterapia  aHaemonchus Contortus  aHelminto gastrintestinal  aMomordica Charantia  aNematóide  aParasitologia  aParasitose  aPlanta medicinal  aBrasil  aCeara  aNematódeo gastrintestinal  aStrongyloides papillosus1 aCAVALCANTE, A.
