Abstract
ABSTRACT: Fifteen Gehyra dubia and 15 Gehyra punctata from Australia were examined for helminths. One species of Cestoda and 6 species of Nematoda were found. Gehyra dubia harbored Oochoristica australiensis, Maxvachonia chabaudi, and Skrjabinodon smythi. Gehyra punctata harbored Parapharyngodon fitzroyi, Pharyngodon kartana, Physalopteroides filicauda, and Abbreviata sp. (larva in cyst). Both species of Gehyra are parasitized by generalist helminths that also infect other species of lizards.All findings represent new host records.
期刊介绍：
Comparative Parasitology (continuing the Journal of the Helminthological Society of Washington in its 67th volume) focuses on parasitological research of a comparative nature, emphasizing taxonomy, systematics, ecology, biogeography, evolution, faunal survey, and biological inventory within a morphological and/or molecular context. The scope of Comparative Parasitology extends to all parasitic faunas, including helminths, protistans and arthropods.
