Morphological and molecular identification of nematodes in the tayra Eira barbara from Campeche, Mexico

The tayra Eira barbara is a Neotropical mustelid considered as an endangered species by Mexican environmental authorities. Despite the considerable information available on the biology and ecology of E. barbara, little is known about its helminth fauna. Here, we provided new records of nematodes fro...
