PINTO, Hudson Alves; MATI, Vitor Luís Tenorio  y  MELO, Alan Lane de. New records and a checklist of trematodes from Butorides striata (Aves: Ardeidae). Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2013, vol.84, n.4, pp.1100-1110. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.7550/rmb.34431.

Seven species of trematodes were identified during the study of helminths found in Butorides striata (Linnaeus, 1758) from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil: Ascocotyle (Phagicola) angrense (Travassos, 1916), Ascocotyle (Phagicola) pindoramensis (Travassos, 1928), Centrocestus formosanus (Nishigori, 1924), Clinostomum heluans Braun, 1899, Clinostomum marginatum (Rudolphi, 1819), Posthodiplostomum nanum Dubois, 1937, and Prosthogonimus ovatus (Rudolphi, 1803). Butorides striata is a new host for C. heluans, P. ovatus, A. (P.) pindoramensis, and C. formosanus. This last species is reported for the first time in a naturally infected definitive host in South America. Additionally, an updated checklist with 31 species of trematodes already reported in B. striata is presented.
