AbstractThe aim of this study was to register the first occurrence ofSynhimantus(Dispharynx)nasuta(Nematoda: Acuariidae) in some species of wild birds in Brazil. In addition, the aim was to deepen the knowledge about the morphology of this species through analysis using scanning electron microscopy. Nematodes were collected in wild birds of the speciesTurdus leucomelas,T. rufiventris,Mimus saturninus,Pitangus sulphuratus, Megascops choliba,Tyto furcata, andFalco sparverius. The morphological and morphometric data observed in the nematodes prove that these parasites areS. (D.)nasuta. This study also provides morphological data from light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as the morphometry of this nematode in each host species. Therefore, the current study confirms the first record of this nematode inF.sparveriusandT.furcatain South America and, at the same time, these findings expand the host range of this parasite species worldwide, through the first records inM.choliba,M.saturninus,T.leucomelasandT.rufiventris.
