Abstract Aplectana comprises species of gastrointestinal helminths commonly found parasitizing amphibians and reptiles worldwide. However, most the genus are described based only on morphological traits. During helminthological surveys, we nematodes identified as pella hylid frog Osteocephalus cabrerai from same locality original description. We provided first nucleotide sequence ribosomal gene 18S rDNA for established species' phylogenetic position between representatives Cosmocercidae. A...
Abstract Schrankiana are gastrointestinal parasites of anurans, distributed throughout Central and South America. formosula inconspicata some the most commonly reported species parasitising anurans from Brazil, morphological differences between them unclear. In present study, we redescribed S. based on a re-examination type series newly collected material frog Leptodactylus pentadactylus in state Amapá, Brazil. Additionally, re-examined , propose it as junior synonym . We provide detailed...
Ophiotaenia is the most diverse genus among proteocephalids, composed of species commonly found parasitizing snakes worldwide. However, diversity in this region Neotropical still underestimated. This study describes karipuna n. sp. Erythrolamprus miliaris Amapá, Brazil. Additionally, we redescribe arandasi based on a re-examination type series and newly collected material from taeniogaster Pará, The new differs its congeners following characteristics: scolex width, number testes, relative...
