Título: | Helminth communities of the exotic introduced turtle, Trachemys scripta elegans in southwestern Spain: Transmission from native turtles |
Autor: | Hidalgo-Vila, J. CSIC; Díaz-Paniagua, Carmen CSIC ORCID; Ribas, A.; Florencio, Margarita CSIC ORCID; Pérez-Santigosa, N. CSIC; Casanova, J.C. | Fecha de publicación: | 2009 | Editor: | W.B. Saunders | Citación: | Research in Veterinary Science 86: 463- 465 (2009) | Resumen: | We report the prevalence and diversity of helminth parasites found in native turtles Mauremys leprosa and Emys orbicularis from three localities in southwestern Spain and we describe the helminth communities of exotic turtles Trachemys scripta elegans coexisting in the wild with both native turtle species. Five nematodes species were identified, of which Serpinema microcephalus was the only species common between two localities, although infection parameters were different between them. This is the first report of cross transmission of S. microcephalus and Falcaustra donanaensis from native to exotic turtles and the first report of genus Physaloptera in turtles of the Palearctic Region. Continuous releasing of exotic pet turtles in wildlife ecosystems increases the risk of parasite introductions and, consequently, potential transmission to native species, and highlights the impending need for regulation of pet turtle trade in Europe. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
