New information on morphology and molecular data of camallanid nematodes parasitising Xenopus laevis (Anura: Pipidae) in South Africa
(Parazitologický ústav AVČR., 2018)Three species of nematodes from the Camallanidae that are known to infect Xenopus laevis Daudin (Anura: Pipidae) were collected from several localities across South Africa. New data on morphology, partial 28S and cox1 ... -
Repeated reduction in parasite diversity in invasive populations of Xenopus laevis: a global experiment in enemy release
(Springer, 2019)The introduction of species to multiple continents creates natural experiments suited to the evaluation of ecological hypotheses. For the Enemy Release Hypothesis (ERH), which postulates that the success of invasive ... -
Xenopus laevis as UberXL for nematodes
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)The effect of invasive species on local parasite dynamics is often overlooked. The African Clawed Frog Xenopus laevis (Daudin, 1802) (Anura: Pipidae) is a global invader, with established populations on four continents and ...
