Helminth parasite communities of two Physalaemus cuvieri Fitzinger, 1826 (Anura: Leiuperidae) populations under different conditions of habitat integrity in the Atlantic Rain Forest of Brazil

Abstract: Adults of Physalaemus cuvieri were collected and necropsied between November 2009 and January 2010. This was carried out in order to report and compare the helminth fauna associated with two populations of this anuran species from the Brazilian Atlantic rain forest under different conditions of habitat integrity. The hosts from the disturbed area were parasitized with five helminth taxa: Cosmocerca parva, Aplectana sp., Physaloptera sp., Rhabdias sp., Oswaldocruzia subauricularis (Nematoda) and Polystoma cuvie… Show more

“…Rhabdias are nematodes commonly found infecting the lungs of amphibians and reptiles (Anderson, 2000; Aguiar et al ., 2015). They have a direct life cycle that includes both parasitic and free-living stages (Anderson, 2000; Kuzmin, 2013).…”

“…Studies with Physalaemus species have been conducted regarding their taxonomy (Heyer & Wolf, 1989;Feio et al, 1999;Ron et al, 2005;Pimenta et al, 2005), phylogenetic and phylogeography (Lima, 2012). Biological aspects are known mainly from Atlantic Forest and Cerrado areas, and include reproduction (Brasileiro & Martins, 2006;Pupin et al, 2010), parasitology (Toledo et al, 2013;Campião et al, 2014;Aguiar et al, 2015;Leivas et al, 2018;C. Oliveira et al, 2019), anddiet (Santana &Juncá, 2007;Moser et al, 2017;Leivas et al, 2018).…”
