We report the finding of cysts and larvae of Strongyluris in specimens of L. fulica from an urban area of the municipality of Maringá in northern Paraná State, southern Brazil. Thirty-seven young adult snails were collected at three sites: 15 in riparian forest; 14 in a vegetable garden; and eight in a residential garden. We found a total of 16 cysts with nematode larvae in three of the 15 snails collected in riparian forest. The parasites were identified as larvae of the genus Strongyluris, which are parasites of the gastrointestinal tract of amphibians and reptiles. Lissachatina fulica is established in urban areas of 33% of the municipalities of the state of Paraná. The species has spread rapidly through the urban area of the municipality of Maringá, which may contribute to the transmission of nematode larvae of medical and veterinary interest to humans and other animals.
我们报告了在巴西南部巴拉那州马里亚纳市北部市区采集的福寿螺标本中发现了圆线虫的囊和幼虫。在三个地点共收集了 37 只幼成螺:15 只在河岸林,14 只在菜园,8 只在居民花园。我们在 15 只河岸林采集的螺中发现了 3 只总共带有 16 个线虫幼虫的囊。这些寄生虫被鉴定为圆线虫属的幼虫,它们是两栖类和爬行类胃肠道寄生虫。福寿螺已在巴拉那州 33%的城市建立了种群。该物种已在马里亚纳市的城市地区迅速蔓延,这可能有助于向人类和其他动物传播具有医学和兽医学意义的线虫幼虫。
