| | Ranum & Wharton--Yellow-eyed penguin gut parasites |
 | | Helminth and protozoan parasites of the alimentary tract of the yellow-eyed penguin (Megadyptes antipodes) |
 | | Abstract Faecal samples from yellow-eyed penguins, Megadyptes antipodes, were collected at Boulder Beach, Otago Peninsula, New Zealand, between July and September 1993, and examined for helminth eggs and protozoa. |
 | | Yellow-eyed penguins, in this study, had low burdens of gut parasites, suggesting that the parasites do not threaten the survival of the penguins. |
