Abstract

This study, based on a morphometric approach for identification of the nematode parasite Parapharyngodon micipsae (Seurat 1917), reports the first record of P. micipsae in a West African species of gecko, Tarentola parvicarinata Joger 1980 (Gekkonidae), collected in the Niokolo Koba National Park, Senegal. Specimens of P. micipsae were examined under a light microscope and for the first time with a scanning electron microscope.

Abstract (in Czech)

Tato studie, založená na morfometrickém přístupu při identifikaci parazitické hlístice Parapharyngodon micipsae (Seurat 1917), přináší první nález P. micipsae v západoafrickém druhu gekona, Tarentola parvicarinata Joger 1980 (Gekkonidae), který byl nalezen v Národním parku Niokolo Koba v Senegalu. Jedinci P. micipsae byli vyšetřeni za použití světelné mikroskopie a poprvé i pomocí rastrovací elektronové mikroskopie.
