About this document

A Redescription of Hedruris Moniezi Ibanez Cordova by NOEMI MIRANDA MELO is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document provides a redescription of the nematode Hedruris moniezi, an endoparasite of the Titicaca water frog, Telmatobius culeus, based on new morphological observations using light and scanning electron microscopy. It discusses the taxonomic status of H. moniezi, suggesting it is a junior synonym of H. oriestae, and presents a key to valid Hedruris species in Peru. The study highlights previously unreported morphological features and confirms Telmatobius culeus as a new host for this species.
