    From Hispaniola, an island in the West Indies, 6 species of anoles, Anolis cristatellus, Anolis etheridgei, Anolis eugenegrahami, Anolis hendersoni, Anolis monticola, and Anolis olssoni were examined for helminths. Helminths representing 2 species of trematodes, Mesocoelium monas and Urotrema scabridum; 1 species of cestode, Oochoristica maccoyi; 11 species of nematodes, Atractis scelopori, Oswaldocruzia lenteixeirai, Parapharyngodon cubensis, Skrjabinoptera leiocephalorum, Trichospirura teixeirai, Ascarops sp., Physocephalus sp., Porrocaecum sp., Rhabdias sp., Acuariidae gen. sp. and Cosmocercidae gen. sp.; and 1 species of acanthocephalan, Centrorhynchus sp., were found. Skrjabinoptera leiocephalorum, Ascarops sp., and Physocephalus sp. from A. cristatellus and all helminths recovered from the other 5 anole species represent new host records.
