 The helminth community of Apodemus sylvaticus (Rodentia, Muridae) in the Sierra de Gredos (Spain)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The Spanish mountain range of Gredos was included in the studies conducted on the Iberian peninsula to investigate helminth fauna of small mammals.
This study is part of various multidisciplinary projects which were carried out with the aim to fill the gap in our knowledge on the helminth community of the small mammals present in the peninsular ecosystems of great ecological importance.
Thus, the objective of this article is to analyse the helminth community of the wood mouse, Apodemus sylvaticus (Rodentia, Muridae), in the Regional Park of Sierra de Gredos, a natural ecosystem located in the centre of the Iberian peninsula, considering qualitative, quantitative and ecological aspects.
