Larval nematodes (Ascarops sp.) in stomach granulomas of the sagebrush lizard, Sceloporus graciosus

SR Goldberg and CR Bursey


ABSTRACT

Wild populations of the sagebrush lizard (Sceloporus graciosus) are reported as paratenic hosts for third stage larvae of Ascarops sp. Larvae were found in stomach submucosal granulomas which averaged 350 microns in diameter and consisted of histiocytes and layers of fibrocytes. Prevalence of infection was 16% (27 of 170 infected); mean intensity was 3 (1 to 8 nematodes/host). Prevalence was significantly higher in male than female lizards.
