Abstract

A total of 8 specimens of Rana tavasensis Baran & Atatür, 1986 (Tavas frog) were collected in Denizli Province (inner-west Anatolia, or the eastern part of the Aegean region), Turkey, in 2008 and 2009 and were examined for the fi rst time for helminths. All 8 frogs were infected with 1 or more helminths. The helminth fauna of R. tavasensis comprised 3 species: 1 species of Digenea [Haplometra cylindracea (Zeder, 1800) Looss, 1899], 1 species of Nematoda [Cosmocerca ornata (Dujardin, 1845)], and 1 species of Acanthocephala [Acanthocephalus ranae (Schrank, 1788) Lühe, 1911)]. R. tavasensis represents a new host record for each of the observed helminth species in Turkey.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’nin Ege Bölgesinin doğusunda yer alan İç-Batı Anadolu yöresindeki Denizli’den 2008-2009 yılları arasında toplanan Tavas Kurbağası (Rana tavasensis Baran ve Atatür, 1986)’nın helmintleri ilk kez incelenmiştir. Sekiz kurbağa örneğinin tamamının bir ya da daha fazla helmintle infekte olduğu tespit edilmiştir. R. tavasensis’te gözlenen 3 helmint türünden biri Trematoda’dan Haplometra cylindracea (Zeder, 1800) Looss, 1899, biri Nematoda’dan Cosmocerca ornata (Dujardin, 1845) ve diğeri de Acanthocephala’dan Acanthocephalus ranae (Schrank, 1788) Lühe, 1911) olup, R. tavasensis, tespit edilen helmint türleri için Türkiye’den yeni konak kaydıdır.
