Edoardo Bellarmino Perroncito (10 March 1847, Viale in the Province of Asti – 4 November 1936) was an Italian parasitologist. He was the father of pathologist Aldo Perroncito (1882–1929).

Edoardo Perroncito

He earned his degree in veterinary medicine, and in 1879 he became a professor of parasitology to the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Turin.[1]

Remembered for his extensive research of Ancylostoma duodenale (hookworm), in 1880 he determined that hookworm was the cause of anemia being suffered by workmen building the St. Gotthard railway tunnel.[2][3] He was the first to recommend using an extract of the male fern as a remedy for the disease.[4][5] In 1878 he identified the highly contagious disease of domestic fowl  which is considered to be the first historical record of avian influenza (initially known as a fowl plague).[6][7]
