Gastrointestinal parasites of owl monkeys (Aotus Azarai Azarai) in the Argentinean Chaco

In fragmented habitats, an increase in the proportion of available forest edge has been positively correlated to parasite rich- ness. We evaluated how the presence of forest edge may affect parasite-host dynamics in a population of wild owl monkeys (Aotus azarai azarai) in an unlogged gallery fo...

We evaluated how the presence of forest edge may affect parasite-host dynamics in a population of wild owl monkeys (Aotus azarai azarai) in an unlogged gallery forest in Formosa, Argentina. We collected 53 fecal samples from groups inha- biting edge territories (n=7 groups, 33 samples) and groups inhabiting the interior of the forest (n=3 groups, 15 samples). We compared the number of parasite species (richness) found between the two types of groups, as well as the frequency of samples with multiple infections (more than one parasite species in the sample) and the distribution of helminths on the forest floor between habitat types. The number of parasite species, the proportion of samples with multiple infections and the helminth distribution were not significantly different across the two habitat types. En hábitats fragmentados, un incremento en la proporción de borde de bosque ha sido correlacionado con la riqueza de pa- rásitos. Evaluamos cómo la presencia de borde de bosque puede afectar la dinámica de parasite-hospedero en una población silvestre de monos de noche (Aotus azarai azarai) en un bosque de galería no perturbado en Formosa, Argentina. Colectamos 53 muestras de heces fecales de grupos que habitaban territorios en el borde del bosque (n=7 grupos, 33 muestras) y grupos habitando al interior del bosque (n=3 grupos, 15 muestras). Comparamos el número de especies de parásitos (riqueza) encontrado entre los dos tipos de grupos, así como la frecuencia de muestras con múltiples infecciones (más de una especie de parásito en la muestra) y la distribución de helmintos en le suelo del bosque entre tipos de hábitat. El número de especies de parásitos, la proporción de muestras con múltiples infecciones y la distribución de helmintos no fue significativamente diferente entre los dos tipos de hábitat. 2023-12-04T13:50:45Z 2023-12-04T13:50:45Z 2010-06 Artículo Perea Rodriguez, Juan Pablo, et al., 2010.
