A data set comprising individual host/parasite lists from 100 Lacerta viridis (Reptilia: Lacertidae) belonging to four isolated populations in Bulgaria was studied. A total of seven helminth species was recovered (Leptophallus nigrovenosus, Plagiorchis molini, Oswaldocruzia filiformis, Spauligodon extenuatus, Skrjabinelazia hoffmanni, Physaloptera clausa and Mesocestoides sp.). Lacerta viridis is a new host record for the first five of these species. Communities of intestinal helminths of L. viridis consist of a few species which resulted in a low species richness, abundance and diversity of infracommunities, which exhibit substantial homogeneity among the four samples. A similar pattern of dominance of two nematode species leading to a relatively high community similarity at both infra- and component community levels was observed. While intestinal helminth communities in lizards from 'marginal' habitats were dominated by the host generalist, O. filiformis, those in hosts from 'typical' habitats were dominated by the lizard specialist S. extenuatus. The results indicate that the characteristics of the host's habitat are important in determining the composition rather than structure of intestinal helminth communities in L. viridis.
对一个数据集进行了研究，该数据集包含来自保加利亚四个孤立种群的100只绿蜥蜴（爬行纲：蜥蜴科）的个体宿主/寄生虫列表。总共发现了七种蠕虫物种（黑纹细阴茎吸虫、莫氏斜睾吸虫、丝状奥斯瓦尔德线虫、细弱斯氏线虫、霍夫曼斯克里亚宾线虫、克劳萨泡翼线虫和中绦虫属物种）。绿蜥蜴是其中前五个物种的新宿主记录。绿蜥蜴的肠道蠕虫群落由少数物种组成，这导致群落内物种丰富度、丰度和多样性较低，在四个样本中表现出显著的同质性。在群落内和组成群落水平上都观察到了类似的两种线虫物种占主导地位的模式，导致相对较高的群落相似性。虽然来自“边缘”栖息地的蜥蜴的肠道蠕虫群落以广宿主性的丝状奥斯瓦尔德线虫为主，但来自“典型”栖息地的宿主的肠道蠕虫群落则以蜥蜴特异性的细弱斯氏线虫为主。结果表明，宿主栖息地的特征在决定绿蜥蜴肠道蠕虫群落的组成而非结构方面很重要。
