Item The first helminth study on Brandt's Persian Lizard Iranolacerta brandtii (De Filippi, 1863) (Squamata: Lacertidae) from Van Province, Turkey(Sciendo, 2017-03-10) Kumlutaş, Yusuf; Candan, Kamil; Ilgaz, Çetin; Birlik, Sezen; Yıldırımhan, Hikmet Sami; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi/Biyoloji Bölümü.; AAB-9963-2020; AAC-1581-2020; 56534103400; 6603101555Population of Iranolacerta brandtii lizard including 56 (21 female, 34 male,1 juvenile) samples were examined for helminths. 17 of them were found to harbour one or more helminth parasites, while 39 didn't harbor any. Two helminth species were determined. These belong to Phylum: Nematoda, Spauligodon aloisei Casanova, Milazzo, Ribas & Cagnin, 2003 and Skrjabinodon medinae. Garcia-Calvente, 1948. This study represents new host and locality records in both host lizard and the helminth species. Sp. aloisei is recorded for the first time; Sk. medinae is the third report from Turkey nevertheless Sk. medinae is a new host record for I. brandtii.Item Helminth fauna of Spiny Tailed Lizard, Darevskia rudis (Bedriaga, 1886) (Sauria: Lacertidae) from Turkey(Sciendo, 2018-03) Ilgaz, Çetin; Kumlutaş, Yusuf; Birlik, Sezen; Yıldırımhan, Hikmet Sami; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi/Biyoloji Bölümü.; AAB-9963-2020; AAC-1581-2020; 56534103400; 57200582247The present study investigated the composition of helminth parasites of Darevskia rudis, Spiny Tailed Lizard from Turkey. One hundred and two samples (49 females, 53 males) from the Tokat, Trabzon, Rize, Gumushane and Artvin Provinces were collected and examined for helminth parasites. New host and locality records were recorded. As a result of the present study, seven species of Nematoda, Skrjabinodon medinae, Spauligodon sp., Spauligodon carbonelli, Spauligodon aloisei, Skrjabinelazia hoffmanni, Strongyloides darevsky, Oswaldocruzia filiformis; one species of Cestoda, Mesocestoides spp. (tetrathyridium) and one species of Acanthocephala Sphaerirostris scanensis were reported from the lizard samples. Sp. carbonelli and Sphaerirostris scanensis are here recorded for the first time in Turkey. D. rudis is the new host recorded for Sk. medinae, Spauligodon sp., Sp. carbonelli, Sp. aloisei from Nematoda, Mesocestoides spp. from Cestoda and Sphaerirostris scanensis from Acanthocephala. This host has been studied for the fi rst time for the helminth parasites from the Tokat and Gumushane Provinces. There is, to our knowledge, only one report of helminthes for D. rudis in Turkey.Item Helminth fauna of valentin's Lizard darevskia valentini (Boettger, 1892) (Squamata: Lacertidae) collected from central and eastern anatolia, Turkey(Sciendo, 2018-01-19) Ilgaz, Çetin; Kumlutaş, Yusuf; Birlik, Sezen; Yıldırımhan, Hikmet Sami; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi/Biyoloji Bölümü.; AAC-1581-2020; AAB-9963-2020; 56534103400; 6603101555In this study, we assessed the helminth fauna of seventy two Valentin's Lizard, Darevskia valentini (32 males, 35 females, 5 subadult). Specimens collected from Kayseri, Ardahan and Van Provinces in Turkey. As a result of the present study, it was detected that forty one hosts are infected with one or more species of helminth. Two species of Cestoda, Oochoristica tuberculata and Mesocestoides spp., and 5 species of Nematoda, Spauligodon aloisei, Skrjabinodon alcaraziensis, Skrjabinodon medinae, Skrjabinelazia hoffmanni and Strongyloides darevsky were found in the hosts. D. valentini represents a new host record for all helminths recorded. Skrjabinodon alcaraziensis is recorded for the first time from Turkey. Van, Kayseri and Ardahan are new locality records for all helminths from D. valentini.
