Reappraisal of the specific status of Rhabdias (Nematoda: Rhabdiasoidea) from Malagasy chameleons in the Paris Museum collection

Parasite, 2009
To date Rhabdias gemellipara is the only species described from Malagasy chameleons, but heterogeneity of the material had been suspected. 11 samples of Rhabdias parasites present in the Paris Natural History Museum collection were examined. The size and

First report of Rhabdias (Nematoda: Rhabdiasoidea) from lungs of montane chameleons in Cameroon: description of two new species and notes on biology

Parasite, 2008
The lung nematodes of the genus Rhabdias parasitic in chameleons were previously only known from east Africa and Madagascar. Two new species are described from Cameroon: i) Rhabdias okuensis n. sp., type-host Chamaeleo (Trioceros) quadricornis gracilior,

Infection patterns of helminths in Norops brasiliensis (Squamata, Dactyloidae) from a humid forest, Northeastern Brazil and their relation with body mass, sex, host size, and season [PDF]

Helminthologia, 2019
Climatic and ecological factors can influence the parasite load of a host. Variation in rainfall, body size, and sex of the hosts may be related to the abundance of parasites.

Comparative reconstruction of the predatory feeding structures of the polyphenic nematode Pristionchus pacificus

Evolution &Development, Volume 24, Issue 1-2, Page 16-36, March 2022., 2022
The novel morphology of a nematode model for the developmental genetics of polyphenism (Pristionchus pacificus) was reconstructed at the level of individual cells. A comparative study of this anatomical map revealed that the dimorphic, predatory morphology of P.

Differences in morphology and in composition and release of parotoid gland secretion in introduced cane toads (Rhinella marina) from established populations in Florida, USA

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 1013-1022, January 2021., 2021
Predators in the United States have evolved in sympatry with native bufonids. Compared to Australia, little attention has been paid to gland morphology or toxicity of invasive cane toads in Florida. Although we found no effect of locality on gland morphology or poison composition, our results indicate that northern FL populations show an increased ...

Helminth fauna of Norops fuscoauratus (D’Orbigny, 1837) (Squamata: Dactyloidae) in the Atlantic Forest, northeastern Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
The composition of macro endoparasites associated with the lizard Norops fuscoauratus (Squamata) was analysed in two localities in the Atlantic Forest on the northeast of Brazil between December 2012 and July 2015. 74 specimens of N.
