Checklist of nematode parasites of amphibians from Argentina Author González, Cynthya Elizabeth Author Inés, Hamann Monika text Zootaxa 2015 3980 4 451 476 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3980.4.1 fef1ad43-8b51-4e6b-a642-6e81c678d538 1175-5326 233431 F6823A76-8DE0-4C57-86E8-5A7564CB2A62 Schrankiana Strand, 1942 (= Schrankia Travassos, 1925 ; = Schranknema Travassos, 1949 ) Schrankiana chacoensis González and Hamann, 2014 . Host and record: Leptodactylus bufonius Boulenger, 1894 ( Ch ) . Site of infection: Large intestine. Material deposited: MLP-He 6650(H), 6651(A), 6652, CECOAL 11101910 (P) References: González & Hamann (2014) . Life cycle: Nematodes of this family have been found in amphibians, reptiles, mammals and fishes; third-stage larvae autoinfect the host. Their transmission from host to host in the majority of species is not understood ( Anderson 2000 ). Langford et al. (2013) confirmed with experimental infections in lizards that Cyrtosomum penneri Gambino, 1957 is transferred only during host copulation. Schrankiana schranki (Travassos, 1925) Strand, 1942 Host and record: Leptodactylus latinasus Jiménez de la Espada, 1875 (Co). Site of infection: Large intestine. Material deposited: CECOAL 0 3023524.
