Abstract Members of the genus Oncicola Travassos, 1916 are generalist parasites able to infect a broad spectrum carnivorous hosts, such as marsupials, procyonids, felids, and canids, distributed globally. Adult specimens were collected from intestines three white-nosed coatis ( N. narica ), whereas cystacanths (larval form) found in body cavities two amphibian species (paratenic hosts) localities northern southeastern Mexico. Morphologically, both stages identified O. luehei (Travassos,...
A total of 6 helminth species were recorded during helminthological examination 50 Chapalichthys encaustus from Lake Chapala, Jalisco, Mexico. Helminth identified included: Salsuginus sp. (an undescribed monogenea); Posthodiplostomum minimum (metacercariae); Cyclustera ralli (metacestode); Polymorphus brevis (cystacanth); Contracaecum (nematode larvae); and Rhabdochona lichtenfelsi (adult nematode). Of these, 2 (Salsuginus R. lichtenfelsi) are specialist species. The observed richness,...
As a result of this study, 8 new host (Botaurus lentiginosus for Glossocercus caribaensis and Valipora mutabilis; Egretta caerulea minuta; thula cyprinodontis; tricolor Nycticorax nycticorax caribaensis; Pelecanus occidentalis Platalea ajaja Paradilepis caballeroi) 31 locality records gryporhynchid cestode species in Mexico are presented. With these data, the total number group helminths becomes 25 (19 named 6 unidentified taxa), which have been registered as parasites fishes (47 species)...
A survey of adults gryporhynchid tapeworms (Cestoda: Cyclophyllidea) from herons and related fish-eating birds (Ciconiiformes: Ardeidae Threskiornithidae) along the Atlantic coast Mexico Tamaulipas to Yucatán is presented, based on taxonomic evaluation freshly collected specimens. They belong following 16 species (taxa reported as for first time are marked with an asterisk): Cyclustera capito (Rudolphi, 1819); ibisae (Schmidt Bush, 1972); Dendrouterina ardeae (Rausch, 1955); *Dendrouterina...
Adult specimens of monorchiids (Digenea) were collected from the intestines white grunt, Haemulon plumierii Lacepède (Haemulidae), and mullet, Mugil curema Valenciennes (Mugilidae) five localities off Yucatán Peninsula one locality in Gulf Mexico. Some photographed sequenced for two molecular markers, large subunit (LSU) nuclear rDNA cytochrome c oxidase 1 ( cox1 ) mitochondrial DNA. Other processed morphological analyses. Newly generated sequences aligned with other available GenBank....
Abstract The acanthocephalan Macracanthorhynchus ingens (von Linstow 1879) (Acanthocephala: Archiacanthocephala) is a parasite that infects the gut of carnivores (racoons, coyotes, wolves, foxes, badgers, skunks, opossum, mink and bears) as an adult body cavity lizards, snakes, frogs cystacanth in Americas. In this study, adults cystacanths M. from southeastern Mexico southern Florida, USA, were identified morphologically by having cylindrical proboscis armed with 6 rows hooks each hooks....
Scaphanocephalus is a small trematode genus belonging to the family Opistorchiidae. The currently contains only three species associated with marine fish as intermediate hosts and fish-eating birds definitive hosts. Here, specimens of were collected from Osprey, Pandion haliaetus, White mullet, Mugil curema in Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. We report for first-time DNA sequences adult Scaphanocephalus, particularly S. expansus, well sequence different sampled metacercaria. Morphological...
Eight species of helminths are reported from the intestine 52 white ibis [(Eudocimus albus (Linneaeus)] collected in 14 localities along Mexican coasts Gulf Mexico, and Pacific Ocean. Three trematodes, Parastrigea cincta Brandes, 1888; diovadena Dubois & Macko, 1972, Patagifer lamothei Dronen Blend, 2008, one cestode Cyclustera ibisae Schmidt Bush, 1972 four acanthocephalan Hexaglandula corynosoma Travassos, 1915, Arhythmorhynchus frassoni Molin, 1858, Southwellina hispida Van Cleave,...
Abstract A new species of the genus Lyperosomum Looss, 1899, from intestine golden-fronted woodpecker ( Melanerpes aurifrons ) northern Mexico is described. cuauhxinqui sp. n. morphologically distinguished other congeneric Americas by a higher oral/ventral sucker ratio and its body length width. The sequences domains D1–D3 large subunit (LSU) nuclear ribosomal DNA cytochrome c oxidase 1 cox mitochondrial were obtained compared with available GenBank. genetic divergence estimated between...
Abstract Tapeworms of the family Gryporhynchidae are endoparasites fish-eating birds distributed worldwide. Currently contains 16 genera classified on basis morphology rostellar apparatus, hooks and strobilar anatomy. However, phylogenetic relationships among still unknown. In this study, sequences near complete 18S (SSU) 28S (LSU) from rDNA 13 species gryporhynchids (adult specimens) representing eight ( Cyclustera , Dendrouterina Glossocercus gen. sp., Neovalipora Paradilepis Parvitaenia...
Adults of the genus
The type species of the genus Glossocercus Chandler, 1935, G. cyprinodontis was described as metacestode (larval stage) from mesentery sheepshead minnow fish (Cyprinodon variegatus Lacépède) Galveston Bay, Texas. description based on morphology rostellar hooks; however, features internal proglottides could no be provided. In present study we describe for first time adult intestine Pelecanus occidentalis Linnaeus, Nycticorax nycticorax Linnaeus and Egretta rufescens Gmelin in Mexico....
Los miembros del género Clinostomum, son un grupo de parásitos que en estadio adulto residen la cavidad bucal aves ictiófagas, mientras fase larva conocida como metacercaria, se encuentran forma quiste color amarillo músculo, oral, ojos, branquias, tejido subcutáneo, gónadas, hígado y otros órganos, peces vida silvestre cultivados distribuidos todo el mundo. En presente proyecto investigación recopilamos información disponible base datos GenBank las especies Clinostomum diferentes regiones...
