  • Checklist of Helminths from Lizards and Amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) of South America Ticle R A
    The Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases ISSN 1678-9199 | 2010 | volume 16 | issue 4 | pages 543-572 Checklist of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) of South America TICLE R A Ávila RW (1), Silva RJ (1) EVIEW R (1) Department of Parasitology, Botucatu Biosciences Institute, São Paulo State University (UNESP – Univ Estadual Paulista), Botucatu, São Paulo State, Brazil. Abstract: A comprehensive and up to date summary of the literature on the helminth parasites of lizards and amphisbaenians from South America is herein presented. One-hundred eighteen lizard species from twelve countries were reported in the literature harboring a total of 155 helminth species, being none acanthocephalans, 15 cestodes, 20 trematodes and 111 nematodes. Of these, one record was from Chile and French Guiana, three from Colombia, three from Uruguay, eight from Bolivia, nine from Surinam, 13 from Paraguay, 12 from Venezuela, 27 from Ecuador, 17 from Argentina, 39 from Peru and 103 from Brazil. The present list provides host, geographical distribution (with the respective biome, when possible), site of infection and references from the parasites. A systematic parasite-host list is also provided. Key words: Cestoda, Nematoda, Trematoda, Squamata, neotropical. INTRODUCTION The present checklist summarizes the diversity of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians Parasitological studies on helminths that of South America, providing a host-parasite list infect squamates (particularly lizards) in South with localities and biomes. America had recent increased in the past few years, with many new records of hosts and/or STUDIED REGIONS localities and description of several new species (1-3).

  • Density, Population Size, and Habitat Use by Ameivula Nativo (Teiidae) in a Remnant of Atlantic Forest in Brazil
    Herpetological Conservation and Biology 15(3):558–566. Submitted: 13 February 2020; Accepted: 9 October 2020; Published: 16 December 2020. DENSITY, POPULATION SIZE, AND HABITAT USE BY AMEIVULA NATIVO (TEIIDAE) IN A REMNANT OF ATLANTIC FOREST IN BRAZIL JULIANE PEREIRA-RIBEIRO1, ÁTILLA COLOMBO FERREGUETTI, HELENA GODOY BERGALLO, AND CARLOS FREDERICO DUARTE ROCHA Department of Ecology, Rio de Janeiro State University, Rua São Francisco Xavier, nº 524, Pavilhão Haroldo Lisboa da Cunha, 2º andar, sala 224. Bairro Maracanã, 20550-013 Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 1Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract.—We estimated the population density, size, occupancy, and detectability of the lizard Ameivula nativo (no English common name), an endemic and endangered species, in one of the largest remnants of the Atlantic Forest in Espirito Santo, Brazil, by using methods that consider imperfect detectability. We used linear transect surveys to estimate density and abundance. We also used transect data to estimate large and small-scale species occupancy using six covariates (sampled region, the proportion of exposed soil, the proportion of shrub cover, the proportion of herbaceous cover, air temperature, and relative humidity). The estimated overall density for A. nativo in the Vale Natural Reserve (VNR) was 11.03 ± 2.07 (standard error) individuals/ha with an estimated population size of 7,258 ± 1,365 individuals. At large scales, A. nativo occupancy probability was influenced by region, and local scale occupancy was influenced by proportion of exposed soil. Detectability was affected only by the air temperature, which may be a result of the species physiology because it is an active forager.

Only one species, the nematode Spauligodon saxicolae (Pharyngodonidae), was found. The extremely low infection and diversity parameters, falling among the lowest within the Pal- aearctic saurians, support depauperate helminth communities for these parthenogenetic lacertid lizards. Our results suggest that parthenogenetic Darevskia follow a pattern of parasitism similar to other unisexual lizards (i.e. Aspidocelis). The low rates of infection and diversity may be explained by the decreasing opportunities for interchanging helminths rather than factors of susceptibility of unisexual hosts.

However, and the shallow waters of salt lakes. It is a species predation events are poorly observed in nature and of diurnal feeding habits, but its activity peak occurs hardly documented (e.g., Malkmus, 2000; Aguiar and either at dawn or dusk. This characteristic changes Di-Bernardo, 2004; Silva et al., 2021). Such records in coastal environments, where its feeding habit is are certainly very rare for the teiid lizard Ameiva linked to the tides (McCrimmon et al., 2020). Its diet ameiva (Linnaeus, 1758) (Maffei et al., 2007). is varied and may include amphibians, snakes, insects, Found in most parts of Brazil, A. ameiva is commonly fish, aquatic larvae, mollusks, small crustaceans, small known as Amazon Racerunner or Giant Ameiva, and birds, small mammals, and lizards (Martínez-Vilalta, it has one of the widest geographical distributions 1992; Miranda and Collazo, 1997; Figueroa and among neotropical lizards.

Lizard populations found in insular environments may show ecological and morphological characteristics that differ from those living in continents, as a result of different ecological and evolutionary processes. In this study, we analyzed sexual dimorphism, reproduction, and diet in a population of the whiptail lizard, Aspidoscelis costata, from Isla Isabel, Nayarit, Mexico, sampled in 1977 and 1981. Males and females from Isla Isabel showed no sexual dimorphism in many morphological structures, such as snout-vent length (SVL), but they did in femur length (FL) and tibia length (TL).

Gerencia de Investigación y Desarrollo, Jardín Botánico de Caracas, Universidad Central de Venezuela, Caracas, Venezuela ([email protected]). ABSTRACT Food habits among sexes of Ameiva ameiva were evaluated by the frequency of occurrence, trophic dominance, and diet similarity methods during periods of rain and drought in a tropophic forest in La Llanada Vieja, Sucre State, Venezuela. 431 prey items were identified in 20 stomachs analyzed. Diet for both periods showed a high frequency for Coleoptera, plant material, Isoptera, Nematoda, Araneae, and reptilian rests. Males and females showed differences in diet during the climatic periods analyzed. Females showed higher stomach volumes values than males. Results suggest the species is mainly insectivorous. RESUMEN Se evaluaron los hábitos alimentarios de Ameiva ameiva, mediante el método de frecuencia de aparición, dominancia trófica y similitud de la dieta entre sexos, abarcando los periodos de lluvia y sequía. La captura se realizó en un bosque tropófilo de los alrededores de la Llanada Vieja, estado Sucre, Venezuela.
