Abstract
Four hundred and fifteen Anolis acutus from St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands were examined for helminths. Three nematodes, Ascarops sp. (larvae), Parapharyngodon cubensis, and Spauligodon caymanensis, and 2 acanthocephalans, Centrorhynchus sp. and Oligacanthorhynchus sp. (cystacanths), were found. The highest prevalence (47%) and mean intensity (21.3) were recorded for S. caymanensis. Anolis acutus is a new host record for each of these helminth species.Entities:
