3.1.7. Reptilia , Amphibia, insecta

In total, 496 reptile samples were analyzed. Most of the parasites detected were from the order Oxyurida ( Fig. 1c View Fig ), which was diagnosed in 18.7% of the samples. Testudinata were infected most frequently (23%). Furthermore, we were also able to identify the protozoan Cryptosporidium in one sample ( Table 2).

A few samples belonged to the order Amphibia (n = 34) and Insecta (n = 6). Only Strongylida (5.9%) were identified within the order Amphibia. No parasites were found within the samples from insects.

Specific species of the parasites found within the orders Reptilia and Amphibia were not determined.
