Abstract

As part of an inventory of the parasitic helminths of rodents, two species of the class Oxyuroidea (Heteroxynema cucullatum Hall, 1916 and Rauschtineria eutamii (Tiner, 1948) Hugot, 1980) were collected from three Cliff Chipmunk specimens (Neotamias dorsalis (Baird, 1955)) in the Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Cerro del Mohinora, Mexico. These nematodes have been recorded in different species of the genus Neotamias (Illiger, 1811), which can be found in sympatry mainly along the entire west coast of the USA. This is the first record of both species in Mexico.
