Abstract
En el presente trabajo se realiza un estudio completo de la parasitofauna del lacertido Podarcis dugesii del Archipielago de Madeira (Madeira, Porto Santo y Deserta Grande). Los principales objetivos desarrollados son: I. Revision bibliografica del hospedador asi como de los grupos de protozoos, trematodos, nematodos y acantocefalos parasitos de reptiles y actualizacion de sus claves taxanomicas; II. Aislamiento, identificacion y descripcion de las especies parasitas encontradas; III. Estudio de las relaciones filogeneticas y zoogeograficas existentes entre los hospedadores de areas geograficas proximas, con argumentos parasitarios. Con esta finalidad, se recogieron y examinaron 955 ejemplares de P. dugesii identificandose en ellos 10 especies de protozos, 2 de trematodos, 4 de nematodos (entre ellas una nueva especie) y un acantocefalo, ..
