Resumo: | Brazil has a great diversity of snakes, but there are few published works concerning parasitism in these animals. The present paper examined pulmonary infection by pentastomids in large snakes from northeasternBrazil, including six specimens of Boa constrictor and two examples of Lachesis muta from the Serpentarium of the Federal University of Pernam- buco (UFPE), Brazil, all of which were collected in the Atlantic Coastal Forest. One specimen of B. constrictor was infected by Porocephalus sp. (intensity of infection 5.0) and one specimen of L. muta was infected by P. stilesi (intensity of infection 15.0). |

O Brasil possui uma grande diversidade de cobras, mas há poucos trabalhos realizados sobre parasitismo destas por pentastomídeos. No intuito de investigar o parasitismo pulmonar por pentastomídeos em grandes cobras na região nordeste, foram examinados seis espécimes de Boa constrictor e duas de Lachesis muta pertencentes à coleção do Serpentário da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco–UFPE, todos coletadas em localidades de mata úmida (Mata Atlântica). Apenas um espécime de B. constrictor estava infectado por Porocephalus sp. (intensidade de infecção 5,0). Apenas um espécime de L. muta estava infectado por P. stilesi (intensidade de infecção 15,0).Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2008-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/2175-7925.2008v21n2p16510.5007/2175-7925.2008v21n2p165Biotemas; v. 21 n. 2 (2008); 165-1682175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/2175-7925.2008v21n2p165/18919Copyright (c) 2008 Waltécio de Oliveira Almeida, Felipe Silva Ferreira, Miriam Camargo Guarnieri, Samuel Vieira Britoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlmeida, Waltécio de OliveiraFerreira, Felipe SilvaGuarnieri, Miriam CamargoBrito, Samuel Vieira2018-03-07T18:14:18Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/20933Revistahttp://www.biotemas.ufsc.br/index.htmPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/oai||carlospinto@ccb.ufsc.br2175-79250103-1643opendoar:2018-03-07T18:14:18Biotemas (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
