Prevalence of Non-Protozoan Gut & Tissue Endo-Parasites of B.Regularis

Over the years, insects have been terrorizing farm crops. Toads are fat-bodied, have warts, can live in drier climates, where most frogs usually live in or near water. They are most abundant in the tropical regions. Amphibian parasitism has been used as a model for understanding very important issues pertaining to the evolution of parasites and their hosts, life cycles, host-parasite relationships, etc. Toads are less common inhabitants of water than frogs and thus are less exposed to infection by larval trematodes. Helminth parasites may result from factors such as dirty environment and poor quality of food taken.This book provides a new information on the study of parasites of B. regularis and other anurans that have been undertaken by few parasitologists. The number of parasites necessary to cause harm to B. regularis varies considerably with the size of the host and health status.This work comes in time to provide academic literature on amphibian parasitism and insect control.
