Gastrointestinal Helminths of Three Introduced Anoles: Anolis bimaculatus leachi, Anolis grahami, and Anolis roquet (Polychridae) from Bermuda

Abstract

Anolis bimaculatus leachi (N = 4), Anolis grahami (N = 59), and Anolis roquet (N = 11) from Bermuda were examined for gastrointestinal hel- minths. Anolis bimaculatus leachi harbored Parapha- ryngodon cubensis and larvae ofAbbreviata sp; Anolis grahami harbored Atractis scelopori, Parapharyngodon cubensis, and Protrellus aurifluus (a parasite of cock- roaches); Anolis roquet harbored Atractis scelopori and larvae ofAbbreviata sp. Anolis bimaculatus leachi is a new host record for Abbreviata sp.; Anolis grahami is a new record for Protrellus aurifluus; Anolis roquet is a new host record for Atractis scelopori and Abbreviata sp.
