Description
1. Introduction The parasite-host relationship is an important parameter in the study of animal communities (Rocha et al., 2000), and the knowledge of parasite's biology and the regulatory factors of host-parasite interactions are fundamental to conservation and management of hosts in situ as well as in zoos or in captivity (Klingenberg, 1993; Marcogliese, 2004). Although most of the studies of parasitism in vertebrates are mainly concerned with economic questions (Cunha-Barros et al., 2003), ecological studies focusing interactions between parasites and their lizard hosts have been relatively well documented in Brazil over the last two decades (Ribas et al., 1995, 1998; Rocha, 1995; Vrcibradic et al., 1999; 2000; 2002a, b, 2007; Bursey et al., 2003; Rocha and Vrcibradic, 2003; Rocha et al., 2003; Dias et al., 2005; Anjos et al., 2005, 2007; 2008; Goldberg et al., 2006; Almeida et al., 2008a, 2008b, 2009).
