Helminth fauna of <i>Anatololacerta pelasgiana</i> (Mertens, 1959) (Sauria: Lacertidae) from several localities of south-west part of Türkiye

We present data on helminths harboured by Pelasgian Rock Lizard <i>Anatololacerta pelasgiana</i> (Mertens, 1959) from several localities in Muğla province, Türkiye. Five helminth species (Nematoda) were found in <i>A. pelesgiana</i>: <i>Oswaldocruzia filiformis</i>, <i>Physalopteroides</i> sp., <i>Thubunae</i> sp., <i>Spauligodon cabrerae</i> and <i>Spauligodon aloisei.</i> Overall helminth prevalences were not relatively high for this species [27/44 (61.3 %)]; helminth assemblages from host species were depauperate and dominated by generalist helminths with direct life cycles.
