This paper provides a summary of new and revised records of pentastomes published since 1985 and also presents a checklist of all pentastome records from Australian reptiles and amphibians. The need to identify pentastome species, through both morphological and molecular characterization, is highlighted to enable a determination of the true diversity of pentastome species and their distribution within amphibians and reptiles in Australia.
本文总结了自 1985 年以来发表的关于 pentastomes 的新记录和修订记录，并提供了澳大利亚爬行动物和两栖动物所有 pentastome 记录的清单。通过形态和分子特征来识别 pentastome 物种的必要性得到了强调，这有助于确定 pentastome 物种的真正多样性及其在澳大利亚两栖动物和爬行动物中的分布。
