Dioctophyme renale larvae have been found in cysts in the gastric wall of 5.17% (3/58) Chaunus ictericus specimens from São Cristóvão district, Três Barras municipality, Santa Catarina state, Brazil. However, larvae of this nematode were not found in sympatric Chaunus schneideri. The larvae caused a mild granulomatous reaction. This is the first report of paratenic hosts for D. renale in Brazil, and probably is also the first in the Neotropical region.
在巴西圣卡塔琳娜州特雷斯巴拉斯市圣克里斯托旺区的 58 个 Chaunus ictericus 标本中，有 3 个（5.17%）胃壁囊中有 Diocophyme renale 的幼虫。然而，在同种的 Chaunus schneideri 中未发现该线虫的幼虫。幼虫引起轻度肉芽肿反应。这是巴西首例关于 Diocophyme renale 的转续宿主的报告，可能也是新热带地区的首例报告。
