SANTOS, Viviane Gularte Tavares dos e AMATO, Suzana B.. Rhinella fernandezae (Anura, Bufonidae) a paratenic host of Centrorhynchus sp. (Acanthocephala, Centrorhynchidae) in Brazil. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2010, vol.81, n.1, pp.53-56. ISSN 2007-8706.
Cystacanths of Centrorhynchus sp., were found in the coelomic cavity of anurans Rhinella fernandezae (Gallardo, 1957), collected in the municipality of Imbé, on the northern coast of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil. In a sample totaling 90 anurans, the prevalence of cystacanths was 84%, and the mean intensity of infection was 4.79 helminths/host. This is the first record of Centrorhynchus sp. cystacanths in anurans from Southern Brazil and from the State of Rio Grande do Sul.
