标题:PARASITES OF LITHOBATES MONTEZUMAE TADPOLES FROM THE “JARDÍN BOTÁNICO EXTERIOR”, PEDREGAL DE SAN ÁNGEL ECOLOGICAL RESERVE, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF MEXICO
摘要:Three parasite taxa, Trichodina hypsilepis , T. koloti and Parapharyngodon sp., were collected from a sample of tadpoles of the species Lithobates montezumae from the Pedregal de San Ángel Ecological Reserve, belonging to the National Autonomous University of Mexico. These taxa are new records for the host species and their presence is documented for the first time for anurans in Mexico. This work presents the first morphological characterization for trichodinid ciliates from Mexican amphibians and contributes to the knowledge of parasite fauna of wild species inhabiting in an urban ecological reserve.
