Camallanus emydidius n. sp. (Nematoda: Camallanidae) in Trachemys dorbigni (Duméril & Bibron, 1835) (Testudines: Emydidae) from Southern Brazil

Abstract: This paper describes a new species of Camallanus found in the freshwater turtle Trachemys dorbigni. Sixty hosts collected in Southern Brazil were examined. All hosts (100%) were parasitized by a new species of Camallanus, which was described as Camallanus emydidius n. sp. The new species differs from other Camallanus species of freshwater turtles mainly because of the morphology of the right spicule, the number of male precloacal and postcloacal papillae, and the presence of “mucrons” in the female posterior e… Show more

“…Adult parasites were determined using keys and specific bibliography (Hedrick, 1935;Cordero, 1946;Lombardero & Moriena, 1977;Baker, 1986;Font & Lotz, 2009;Mascarenhas & Müller, 2017;De Sousa et al, 2018;Palumbo & Diaz, 2018;Palumbo et al, 2020, 2024). The prevalence, mean intensity, and abundance of parasites were calculated following Bush et al (1997).…”

“…The only endoparasites in barramundi L. calcarifer were found in sample taken from the floating net cages in Waiheru and Poka are Camallanus sp. This worm parasite is a non-specific parasite that generally infects specific organs such as the intestines, stomach, rectum, and anus [30] [31]. Fish infected with the Camallanus sp.…”
