| Sumario: | Despite the fact that some parasitological reviews have recently been made in some groups of reptiles, such as snakes and lizards, the current knowledge about the parasitofauna and associated pathologies in reptiles is incomplete and scarce. Therefore, here we present the first record for the state of Querétaro, Mexico of the pentastomid Porocephalus crotali and the first record of the nematode Kalicephalus inermis parasitizing a specimen of Crotalus totonacus, as well as the first record of a fibroma in the mesentery. |
