| the herpetofauna of timor-leste: a first report. | fieldwork conducted throughout timor-leste in september 2004 and july 2009 resulted in a collection or recording of 263 herpetological specimens (100 amphibians, 163 reptiles), comprising at least seven species of frogs and toads, 20 species of lizards, seven species of snakes, two species of turtles, and one species of crocodile. among the amphibians, the most frequently encountered species were toads (duttaphrynus melanostictus), rice paddy frogs (genus fejervarya), and rhacophorid treefrogs ( ... | 2011 | 21852932 |
| endoparasites of three species of house geckoes in lampung, indonesia. | thirty-four house geckoes (21 cosymbotus platyurus, four gehyra mutilata and nine hemidactylus frenatus) in december, 1997 (rainy season) and 26 geckos (16 c. platyurus, six g. mutilata and four h. frenatus) in july, 2000 (dry season) were captured in lampung, indonesia. some species of geckoes have been inadvertently introduced to many tropical regions from their native region, but the three species of geckoes in this study are native to indonesia. six species of endoparasites were recovered: o ... | 2002 | 12018196 |
| eimeria cicaki sp. n. and isospora thavari sp. n. from the house lizard gehyra mutilata boulenger in malaysia. | oocysts and endogenous stages of new species of eimeria and isospora from the house lizard, gehyra mutilata, are described. the ellipsoid to subspherical 2-layered oocysts of e. cicaki averaged 24.0 x 21.0 mum. polar granules are present. micropyle and oocyst residuum are absent. ellipsoid sporocysts average 12.2 x 9.0 mum. a sporocyst residuum is present, but the stieda body is absent. endogenous stages are in epithelial cells of the small intestine. the subspherical single-layered oocysts of i ... | 1975 | 1195155 |
| dispersal and evolution of the pacific basin gekkonid lizards gehyra oceanica and gehyra mutilata. | the pacific island geckos gehyra mutilata and gehyra oceanica were studied on several pacific basin archipelagos to determine the degree that their distributions have been modified by humans (as commensals), through the analysis of protein variation using starch gel electrophoresis. gehyra mutilata is an anthropophilic species that is widespread in the pacific basin and southeast asia. no protein variation was found in the pacific basin and southern asia, although there were fixed allelic differ ... | 1997 | 28568588 |
| emergent multisystemic enterococcus infection threatens endangered christmas island reptile populations. | multisystemic infections with a morphologically unusual bacterium were first observed in captive critically endangered lister's geckos (lepidodactylus listeri) on christmas island in october 2014. since then the infection was identified in another captive critically endangered lizard species, the blue-tailed skink (cryptoblepharus egeriae) and two species of invasive geckos; the four clawed gecko (gehyra mutilata) and asian house gecko (hemidactylus frenatus), in a wide geographic range across t ... | 2017 | 28727845 |
| new insights into sauropsid papillomaviridae evolution and epizootiology: discovery of two novel papillomaviruses in native and invasive island geckos. | papillomaviruses cause persistent infections in skin and mucosal membranes and, in at least one species, are also be able to infect a tissue of mesenchymal origin. infections may either be subclinical or induce proliferative lesions. of the known papillomaviruses, the majority that have been characterized are from humans and other mammals. currently, only fifteen complete bird and reptile papillomavirus genomes have been described, and they have been found in birds (n = 11), turtles (n = 2), and ... | 2019 | 31798966 |
| gastrointestinal helminths of four gekkonid lizards, gehyra mutilata, gehyra oceanica, hemidactylus frenatus and lepidodactylus lugubris from the mariana islands, micronesia. | the gastrointestinal tracts of gekkonid lizards from guam (gehyra mutilata [n = 4], gehyra oceanica [n = 11], hemidactylus frenatus [n = 43], and lepidodactylus lugubris [n = 38]) and rota (gehyra oceanica [n = 2], hemidactylus frenatus [n = 13], and lepidodactylus lugubris [n = 20] were examined for helminths. found were 2 species of cestodes, cylindrotaenia allisonae, oochoristica javaensis, 1 species of trematode, allopharynx macallisteri, and 5 species of nematodes, pharyngodon lepidodactylu ... | 1998 | 9920336 |
| [molecular identification of tibetan medicine qianghuoyu by co i]. | the co i gene sequences of qianghuoyu, pachytriton labiatus and gehyra mutilata were achieved by pcr amplification and bi-directional sequencing. furthermore, a pair of specific primers sjyw1 and sjyw2 in the non-conservative district were designed through sequence alignment. the pcr reaction condition was established by changing the annealing temperature and cycle numbers. the results showed that 350 bp dna fragment was amplified from qianghuoyu in pcr with annealed temperature at 54 °c and the ... | 2015 | 26084158 |
