摘要：

Spauligodon giganticus was recovered from the large intestine of 459 of 489 (94%) Yarrow's spiny lizards (Sceloporus jarrovii jarrovii). A seasonal pattern of infection was noted: mean intensity of adults was higher during summer; mean intensity of larvae was higher during winter. Infection of Sceloporus jarrovii by Spauligodon giganticus may occur shortly after birth of the lizards. Estimated length of time for Spauligodon giganticus to complete its life cycle is less than 98 days.
