Component helminth communities of Aneides lugubris (N=31), Batrachoseps nigriventris (N=63), Ensatina eschscholtzii (N=30), and Taricha torosa (N=68) from California were determined. The compound helminth community consisted of 1 species of cestode, Bitegmen gerrhonoti and 6 species of nematodes, Batracholandros salamandrae, Cosmocercoides variabilis, Falcaustra pretiosa, Megalobatrachonema gigantica, Oswaldocruzia pipiens, and Rhabdias joaquinensis. The least diverse infracommunities were associated with Batrachoseps nigriventris while T. torosa had the most diverse fauna. Only B. salamandrae occurred in each of the 4 component communities. Each of the other helminth species was harbored by a single host species. New host records for B. salamandrae in B. nigriventris and T. torosa; O. pipiens in A. lugubris; C. variabilis in E. eschscholtzii; F. pretiosa and M. gigantica in T. torosa are established.
确定了来自加利福尼亚的哀鳞趾虎(N = 31)、黑腹无肺螈(N = 63)、埃氏剑螈(N = 30)和粗皮渍螈(N = 68)的组成蠕虫群落。复合蠕虫群落由1种绦虫,即格氏双盘绦虫和6种线虫组成,分别为蝾螈棒线虫、可变宇宙线虫、珍贵镰带线虫、巨型大鲵线虫、派氏奥斯塔线虫和华金瑞柏线虫。多样性最低的小群落与黑腹无肺螈相关,而粗皮渍螈拥有最多样化的动物区系。只有蝾螈棒线虫出现在所有4个组成群落中。其他每种蠕虫都仅寄生于单一宿主物种。确立了黑腹无肺螈和粗皮渍螈中蝾螈棒线虫的新宿主记录;哀鳞趾虎中派氏奥斯塔线虫的新宿主记录;埃氏剑螈中可变宇宙线虫的新宿主记录;粗皮渍螈中珍贵镰带线虫和巨型大鲵线虫的新宿主记录。
