description This study aimed to evaluate conditions of risk, as well as Stomoxys calcitrans’ parasitism preference aspects in dogs residing in counties from the Amazonic Region of Mato Grosso State. 78 dogs presenting cutaneous lesions on the ear, including males and females, from different age groups, dog breeds and with distinct morphological characteristics were evaluated. The animals were analyzed based on an epidemiological survey of animals’ pelage and external ear containing aspects related to otology sanity and its association with behavioral characteristics. It was verified that the lesions varied from small alopecic areas to extensive ulcerated and erythematous areas with granulomatous aspect. Most part of the animals presented frequent characteristics such as large size, short and light fur, docile behavior, pendent or semi-erect ears, and bilateral auricular lesions. In relation to otological sanity, most dogs presented otitis in light level with clinical, microbiological and cytological aspects, which characterize external otitis.
