Seasonality, richness and prevalence of intestinal parasites of three neotropical primates (Alouatta seniculus, Ateles hybridus and Cebus versicolor) in a fragmented forest in Colombia [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2017 Studies on parasites infecting non-human primates are essential to better understand the potential threat to humans of zoonoses transmission, particularly under the current processes of pervasive land use change and biodiversity loss.

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2019 Pinworms are important parasitic nematodes in animals and humans, and many species are of medical and veterinary importance. The genus Syphabulea is a poorly known group of pinworms. The systematic position of Syphabulea in Oxyuridae remains unclear. Moreover, there is still a paucity of detailed information on some morphological aspects of the type ...

Syphacia sp. (Nematoda: Oxyuridae) in coprolites of Kerodon rupestris Wied, 1820 (Rodentia: Caviidae) from 5,300 years BP in northeastern Brazil [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012 We present the results of paleoparasitological analyses in coprolites of Kerodon rupestris, rodent endemic to rocky areas of Brazil's semiarid region. The coprolites were collected from excavations at the archaeological site of Toca dos Coqueiros, in the

Comparative Parasitology, 2010 Abstract Three new species of Syphacia Seurat 1916 (Oxyurida: Oxyuridae) are described from rodents (Rodentia: Muridae) in Queensland, Australia. Syphacia (Syphacia) helidonensis n. sp. from Pseudomys gracilicaudatus (Gould 1845) can be distinguished from all other species by a suite of characters including an oval-shaped cephalic plate, elongated ...

Intestinal Nematode Infection Confers a Benefit to a Non‐Declining Frog Species, While a Fungal Parasitic Infection Has Sublethal Impacts on Reproductive Investment [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionEmerging infectious disease is a major cause of wildlife decline around the world. Understanding the impacts of disease even in non‐declining populations is important for understanding population‐level health and resilience to other emerging threats.
