- <p><b><i>Strongyloides pereirai</i> Travassos, 1932 (Fig. 4, A–C).</b></p><p>S it e of i n fe c t i on: small intestine.</p><p>Ho s t, l o c a l it y, an d c ol l e c t i on d at e: <i>S. nasicus</i>, Corrientes, Oct. 2002.</p><p>Vou c h e r m at e r i a l: CECOAL 02103042 (1 female).</p><p>C omments: This species was described by Travassos (1932) from specimens collected from <i>Hylodes nasus</i> (Lichtenstein, 1823) <b>(=</b> <i>Elosia nasus</i>) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We used metric and morphological characteristics such as total length, esophagus length, distance of vulva from posterior end (3:1 ratio), length and width of eggs, and rounded posterior end to identify the specimens in this study.</p><p>In the life cycle of these nematodes, free-living males and females develop into adults in the soil, where they reproduce. Females lay eggs that hatch and develop into the L3 stage, which infects the vertebrate host. Following a migration through the host’s body, adult parasitic females are found in the intestine (Viney & Lok, 2015).</p><p>In South America, nematodes of this genus have been found in amphibians from the families Bufonidae, Hylodidae, and Leptodactylidae (Campião et al., 2014). In Argentina, they were previously found in <i>P. cristinae</i> (= <i>P. albonotatus</i>) from Corrientes province (González & Hamann, 2012a). This is the first report of <i>S. pereirai</i> from Argentine amphibians.</p>
