Abstract

The green toad, Bufo variabilis has been a common species of toads in Iran with a widedistribution in most provinces. The main goal of this study was to determine the helminth parasitefauna of B. variabilis in southwest of Iran. Among 30 toads inspected for HELMINTH INFECTION fromdifferent sites, 100% harbored one or more parasite species. Some toads were afflicted by intestinalobstruction, due to the infection with a large number of cestodes. Twenty-eight cases (93%) hadmixed infection with cestodes (in intestine) and nematodes (in lung). Also, a toad was infected witha single monogenean parasite in its urinary bladder. The identified helminth parasites weremonogenean, POLYSTOMA viridis; cestode, NEMATOTAENIA dispar and a species of nematode, Rhabdiasranae. This study reports for the first time the presence of nematode species R. ranae in B. variabilisin Iran.
