Abstract

The results emphasise the significance of further studies in the Dir Lower to get well understanding of the helminth parasites with ecological relations of their hosts. Twenty-seven specimens of Bufo stomaticus (Lutken, 1864) (Anura: Bufonidae) were collected in the Dir Lower, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan in the period from April to August 2016, and examined for helminths (endoparasites) parasites. Twelve (44.44%) specimens were infected by two types of helminths parasites. Total of forty-one helminths parasites were collected, among them six were identified Cestode and the remaining thirty-five were nematodes. The dominant parasites were nematodes (Cosmocerca sp. with 56.09% followed by Cosmocercoides sp. with 29.26%). But the Cestodes were found with single species (Nematotania dispar with 14.63%). Female toads showed higher parasite diversity than male toads.

摘要

研究结果强调了在Dir Lower进行进一步研究的重要性，以便更好地了解蠕虫寄生虫及其寄主的生态关系。2016年4月至2016年8月期间，在巴基斯坦开伯尔－普赫图赫瓦省的第尔下河道收集了二十七个Bufo stomaticus（Lutken，1864年）（阿努拉：Bufonidae）的标本，并检查了蠕虫（体内寄生虫）的寄生虫。十二种（44.44％）标本被两种类型的蠕虫寄生虫感染。总共收集到41个蠕虫寄生虫，其中6个被鉴定为C虫，其余35个为线虫。主要的寄生虫是线虫（Cosmocerca sp。占56.09％，其次是Cosmocercoides）sp。（占29.26％）。但是发现的est科动物是单一物种（线虫病，占14.63％）。雌性蟾蜍显示出比雄性蟾蜍更高的寄生虫多样性。
