Abstract	This study was carried out to validate the efficacy ofSpondias mombin, used locally as an anthelmintic, and to standardize the effective dose of the plant extract required for worm control in livestock. In vitro andin vivo studies were conducted to determine the direct anthelmintic effect of ethanolic and aqueous extracts ofS. mombin towards different ovine gastrointestinal nematodes. A larval development assay (LDA) was used to investigate thein vitro effect of extracts on strongyle larvae. Another study was conductedin vivo to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the extracts administered orally at dose rates of 125, 250, 500 mg/kg to sheep naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes. Twenty sheep were selected on the basis of positive faecal egg counts (750 epg). The sheep were allocated randomly to a non-medicated control group (A) or to groups given 125 mg/kg (B), 250 mg/kg (C) or 500 mg/kg (D) of extract, respectively. Sheep in groups B–D were given extracts orally on two days. Individual faecal egg counts were performed on days 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12. The presence ofS. mombin extracts in in vitro cultures of larvae decreased the survival of L$_{3}$ larvae. The LC$_{50}$ of the aqueous extract ofS. mombin was 0.907 mg/ml, while the LC$_{50}$ of the ethanolic extract was 0.456 mg/ml. This difference in LC$_{50}$ was statistically significant (p>0.05). The mean percentage faecal egg reduction of sheep drenched with 500 mg/kgS. mombin extracts was 15.0%, 27.5%, 65.0%, 65.0%, 100.0% againstHaemonchus spp., Trichostrongylus spp., Oesophagostomum spp., Strongyloides spp. and Trichuris spp. respectively, on day 12. Extracts ofS. mombin could find application in the control of helminths in livestock.
