helminths of two native frog species (rana chiricahuensis, rana yavapaiensis) and one introduced frog species (rana catesbeiana) (ranidae) from arizona. | the gastrointestinal tracts, lungs, urinary bladders, and body cavities of rana catesbeiana (n = 25), rana chiricahuensis (n = 25), and rana yavapaiensis (n = 37) from arizona were examined for helminths. helminths representing 9 species of trematodes: cephalogonimus brevicirrus, glypthelmins quieta, gorgoderina attenuata, haematoloechus complexus, haematoloechus langiplexus, megalodiscus temperatus, alaria sp., clinostomum sp., and an unidentified strigeid; and 4 species of nematodes: falcaustr ... | 1998 | 9488361 |
falcaustra lowei n. sp. and other helminths from the tarahumara frog, rana tarahumarae (anura: ranidae), from sonora, mexico. | seventy-four specimens of falcaustra lowei n. sp. were recovered from the intestines of 9 of 42 (21%) tarahumara frogs. rana tarahumarae, from sonora, mexico. f. lowei is the 14th nearctic species to be described and belongs to that group of species possessing a pseudosucker, namely f. catesbeianae, f. chabaudi, f. chelydrae, f. mexicana, and f. wardi. the new species can be readily differentiated from these by the arrangement of caudal papillae and length of spicules. priority description of f. ... | 2001 | 11318564 |
trematode community structure in the pulmonate snail physa gyrina. | trematode community structure was examined in the pulmonate snail physa gyrina over a 12-mo period. a total of 1,181 snails was collected from charlie's pond, north carolina, and was found to be parasitized by 6 trematode species. infracommunities were relatively species rich when compared to previous studies, with 18.4% of infected snails having multi-species infections. halipegus eccentricus was found in 88.4% of multiple infections, usually with 1 of 2 other autogenic, egg-transmitted species ... | 1993 | 8459331 |
evidence for host allozymes present on electrophoretic gels of trematode parasites (digenea: plagiorchiiformes). | an allozyme analysis of trematode species glypthelmins californiensis, glypthelmins quieta, glypthelmins pennsylvaniensis, glypthelmins hyloreus, and haplometrana intestinalis from hosts rana aurora, rana clamitans, hyla crucifer, pseudacris triseriata, and rana pretiosa, using starch gel electrophoresis, revealed allozymes for glucose-phosphate isomerase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase that were similar in electrophoretic mobility to host tissue contro ... | 1991 | 1919938 |
helminth parasites of the leopard frog lithobates sp. colima (amphibia: ranidae) from colima, mexico. | the helminth fauna inhabiting lithobates sp. colima from ticuizitán, colima, mexico, comprises 10 species: 4 digeneans ( clinostomum sp., glypthelmins quieta , haematoloechus sp., and langeronia macrocirra ), 5 nematodes ( aplectana itzocanensis , cosmocerca podicipinus , foleyellides striatus , oswaldocruzia subauricularis , and rhabdias sp.), and 1 cestode (cyclophyllidea). glypthelmins quieta , l. macrocirra , and a. itzocanensis represent new host records. these observations, added to previo ... | 2010 | 20496957 |
