  • Title: Intestinal helminths of four species of skinks (Mabuya) (Sauria: Scincidae) from southern Africa.
    Author: Goldberg SR, Bursey CR.
    Journal: Onderstepoort J Vet Res; 2001 Jun; 68(2):143-7. PubMed ID: 11585092.
    Abstract:
    Intestinal helminths are reported from four species of scincid lizards from southern Africa: Mabuya occidentalis, Mabuya spilogaster, Mabuya striata and Mabuya variegata. The helminth fauna consisted of one species of Cestoda, Oochoristica truncata and five species of Nematoda, Abbreviata paradoxa, Maxvachonia dimorpha, Parapharyngodon rotundatus, Spauligodon petersi and Thubunaea fitzsimonsi. All findings represent new host records. Ascarid larvae were also found. It appears that Mabuya is infected by generalist helminths that occur in other species of African lizards.
