Molecular insight into systematics, host associations, life cycles and geographic distribution of the nematode family Rhabdiasidae

International Journal for Parasitology, 2014
Rhabdiasidae Railliet, 1915 is a globally distributed group of up to 100 known species of nematodes parasitic in amphibians and reptiles. This work presents the results of a molecular phylogenetic analysis of 36 species of Rhabdiasidae from reptiles and amphibians from six continents.

Rhabdias collaris n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae) from frogs of Tanzania

Systematic Parasitology, 1987
Rhabdias collaris n. sp. (Rhabditoidea: Rhabdiasidae) is described from Leptopelis vermiculatus (Boulenger, 1909) (Hyperoliidae: Leptopelinae) (type host) and Hyperolius sp. (Hyperoliinae) of Amani, Tanzania. This species differs from all others in the genus in possessing a cephalic end which is markedly thickened by four peripheral muscle bundles. The

Two new species of Entomelas (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae), parasites of Barisia spp. and Mesaspis spp. (Reptilia: Sauria) in Mexico

Zootaxa, 2005
Entomelas campbelli n. sp. (Rhabdiasidae) from the lungs of Barisia imbricata and Mesaspis gadovii (Sauria) and Entomelas floresvillelai n. sp. from B. imbricata, B. herrerae and M. viridiflava (Sauria) are described and illustrated. Both species are similar to E. duellmani in the equatorial location of vulva; E. campbelli resembles E.

Rhabdias lacertae n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae), the first rhabdiasid species parasitising lizards in Europe

Systematic Parasitology, 2010
A new nematode species, Rhabdias lacertae n. sp. (Rhabdiasidae), is described from the body-cavity of the common lizard Lacerta vivipara Jacquin (Lacertidae) from the Ridge of Malá Fatra (Sokolie Hill), north-western Slovakia. The new species differs from its congeners mainly in possessing 3 min cuticular spikes at the tail tip and some other features.

Rhabdias anolis n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae) from the lizard, Anolis frenatus (Sauria: Polychrotidae), from Panama.

Journal of Parasitology, 2003
Rhabdias anolis n. sp. from the lungs of Anolis frenatus collected in Panama is described and illustrated. Rhabdias anolis n. sp. represents the 45th species assigned to the genus and the ninth from the Notropical Realm. It is distinguished from all other Neotropical species by the presence of a pair of sessile lateral papillae on its tail.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Rhabdias kafunata (Rhabditida: Rhabdiasidae)

Experimental Parasitology, 2023
Rhabdias kafunata (Rhabditida: Rhabdiasidae) is a parasitic nematode that significantly affects bufonids. To better understand the genome-level characteristics of related species, Illumina sequencing was used to identify mitochondrial genes and analyze their basic characteristics and gene arrangements. The mitogenome of R.

Description of Rhabdias breviensis n. sp. (Rhabditoidea: Rhabdiasidae) in two Neotropical frog species

Systematic Parasitology, 2013
Nematodes of the genus Rhabdias Stiles & Hassall, 1905 (Rhabditoidea: Rhabdiasidae) have a dioecious free-living stage and a hermaphroditic stage that parasitises the lungs of amphibians and reptiles. Approximately 94 species of Rhabdias have been described.

Life history and development of Pneumon ema tiliquae (nematoda: Rhabdiasidae)

International Journal for Parasitology, 1991
Abstract Pneumonema tiliquae besides its unusual adult morphology has a very precise life cycle. In nature, parasites appear to be restricted to Tiliqua scincoides (blue-tongued lizard); the parasitic generation in the form of a female alternates with a free-living generation of males and females.
