The present work provides an updated checklist of helminth species infecting invasive murid rodents (Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, R. rattus, and Rattus sp.) in Mexico, including 35 helminth taxa (3 trematodes, 7 cestodes, 2 acanthocephalans, and 23 nematodes). The helminthological records were compiled from 18 studies conducted in seven Mexican states up to May 2020. Information on habitats, life stages, geographical locations, hosts, helminthological collections, prevalences, and bibliographic references are included, when available. Finally, a new locality record of the nematode Hassalstrongylus musculi in Yucatan is provided.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
