摘要：

Helminths of the intestine, liver and bile-duct of 8 species of small mammal from 3 localities in Peninsular Malaysia are reported. The most abundant hosts, Rattus surifer, R. sabanus and Tupaia glis harbour 13, 12 and 10 species of helminth respectively. There is no marked depletion in the number of helminth species per host species in the island locality. Infections with spiruroids, Digenea and cestodes reflect the insectivorous habits of the hosts. Characteristic parasite faunas can be defined. Patterns of parasitism are discussed with respect to the possible nature of the host-parasite relationships. © 1979.
