The gastrointestinal tracts, lungs, and urinary bladders of 3 species of treefrogs from Arizona were examined for helminths. Hyla arenicolor (n = 30) and Hyla wrightorum (n = 53) were infected by Cylindrotaenia americana, Cosmocercella haberi, and larvae of Physaloptera sp.; Pseudacris triseriata (n = 20) harbored Falcaustra catesbeianae. The highest prevalence (33%) and greatest mean intensity (112.2) was recorded for Cosmocercella haberi in H. arenicolor. The helminth fauna of these treefrogs is depauperate and consists of different species than those of other Arizona amphibians.
对来自亚利桑那州的3种树蛙的胃肠道、肺和膀胱进行了蠕虫检查。变色雨蛙（n = 30）和赖特氏雨蛙（n = 53）感染了美洲柱带绦虫、哈氏宇宙尾线虫和泡翼属某种的幼虫；三齿拟蝗蛙（n = 20）体内有凯氏镰带吸虫。在变色雨蛙中，哈氏宇宙尾线虫的感染率最高（33%），平均感染强度最大（112.2）。这些树蛙的蠕虫区系种类匮乏，且与亚利桑那州其他两栖动物的蠕虫种类不同。
