Abstract

Twenty two Hemidactylus turcicus (Turkish Gecko) collected from Hatay were examined for helminths between 2000- 2008 years. As a result of this study, 2 helminth species (Spauligodon laevicauda and Macracanthorynchus catulinus) were found. This is the first time that these helminth species have been found in Turkey.
