How Many Parasites Species a Frog Might Have? Determinants of Parasite Diversity in South American Anurans
TLDR
It is concluded that specialist parasites are more likely to be associated with large anurans, which are the ones harbouring higher PSR, and that the lack of association of PSR with hosts’ clade diversification suggests it is strongly influenced by ecological and contemporary constrains.

TLDR
The dominance of digenean A. umbilicatum in the later juvenile common Snook parasite community could be related with the predatory food habits of common snook and an apparent feeding transition period which might occasion great exposure to infective forms.
