A survey of ectoparasitic infestation on anurans in urban areas of Kota Samarahan, Sarawak,
Malaysian Borneo has been conducted from September 2019 until January 2020. This study
aimed to determine the species prevalence and composition of ectoparasites on anuran in the
urban area of Kota Samarahan. The host collection was done by using the method of Visual
Encounter Survey (VES) and the hand-netting method. A total of 120 individuals comprising
six anuran species namely, Chalcorana raniceps, Duttaphrynus melanostictus, Fejervarya
limnocharis, Hoplobatrachus rugulosus, Kaloula pulchra and Polypedates leucomystax were
captured and screened for ectoparasites. One species of non-parasitic Oribatida mites,
Scheloribates species was found infested by four individuals (3.3%) of D. melanostictus. This
preliminary survey produced the first record of non-parasitic mites found on anurans in the
urban area of Kota Samarahan and further research needs to be done since the status of
Scheloribates sp. is still unknown as the parasitic of anurans, and the finding can become a
pioneer for future research. |
