The helminth fauna of B. imbricata consisted of 4 species of nematodes: Cosrnocercoides variabilis (Harwood), Oswaldocruzia pipicns Walton, Physaloptera retusa Rudolphi, and Raillietnema brachyspiculatum Bursey, Goldberg, Salgado-Maldonado, and Mendez-de la Cruz. Gerrhonotus ophiurus harbored 1 trematode species, Brachycoelium salamandrae (Frolich), and 2 nematode species, Cosrnocercoides variabilis and Physaloptera retusa. All represent new host records. With the exception of R. brachyspiculatum, all these helminths are generalists, which are widely distributed in other amphibian and reptile hosts.

Barisia imbricata (Wiegmann, 1828) occurs in highland pine forests throughout Mexico west of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Good, 1988). Gerrhonotus ophiurus Cope, 1866, occurs in the Mexican states of Hidalgo, Puebla, San Luis Potosi, and Veracruz (Good, 1994). There are, to our knowledge, no reports of helminths from these species. We report here the helminths from populations of B. imbricata and G. ophiurus. Thirty-seven B. imbricata deposited in the herpetology collection (ENEPI) of the Escuela Nacional de Estudios Profesionales Iztacala, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM) were examined: 23 from Estado de Copyright © 2011, The Helminthological Society of Washington
