Abstract

There are more than 200 species of Macronyssidae parasitizing reptiles, birds, and mammals worldwide. While most species are found on wild animals, show some degree of geographic, and host group specificity, Ophionyssus natricis thrives on captive snakes and lizards and as a result of the pet trade, has a cosmopolitan distribution. In this study, we are providing new host records for this species for the state of São Paulo, as well as SEM images and the first partial sequences of Brazilian specimens.

两份关于 Ophionyssus natricis (Gervais, 1844) (Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae) 寄生于巴西圈养的 Epicrates crassus (Cope) (Squamata: Boidae) 的病例报告。

全世界有 200 多种 Macronyssidae 寄生在爬行动物、鸟类和哺乳动物身上。大多数物种寄生在野生动物身上，具有一定程度的地域性和宿主群特异性，而 Ophionyssus natricis 寄生在人工饲养的蛇和蜥蜴身上，由于宠物交易的存在，其分布范围遍布全球。在这项研究中，我们提供了该物种在圣保罗州的新寄主记录，以及扫描电镜图像和巴西标本的首批部分序列。

期刊介绍： Systematic Parasitology publishes papers on the systematics, taxonomy and nomenclature of the following groups: Nematoda (including plant-parasitic), Monogenea, Digenea, Cestoda, Acanthocephala, Aspidogastrea, Cestodaria, Arthropoda (parasitic copepods, hymenopterans, mites, ticks, etc.), Protozoa (parasitic groups), and parasitic genera in other groups, such as Mollusca, Turbelleria, etc. Systematic Parasitology publishes fully illustrated research papers, brief communications, and fully illustrated major revisions. In order to maintain high standards, all contributors describing new taxa are asked to state clearly where the holotype is deposited and to make paratypes available for examination by the referees. It is recognized that, in some cases, this may cause problems for the authors, but it is hoped that by adhering to this rule authors may be protected against rapid synonymy of their taxa, and the types will be preserved for posterity.
