Nematodes found in gemsbok and waterbok carcasses are Setaria africana

We see a lot of these nematodes in free roaming gemsbuck and waterbuck, and some other species also.

Can somebody help me with the identification and if possible a lifecycle?

Setaria africana. Filarial worm, mosquito borne

Is it related to Skrabinodera?? Which we often see in springbok meat between the muscles?

Eyes, aberrant larval migration
