| Popis: |
The amphibian skin disease chytridiomycosis, caused by the pathogenetic fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has become one of the major contributors to global amphibian population declines and extinctions. This fungus has spread globally and has caused mortalities in nearly every continent. In South America, Suriname, Guyana and Paraguay are among the remaining three countries where Bd has not been detected to date. To complete the assessment of the possible presence of Bd in Suriname, 205 specimens from the Zoological Collection of Suriname, compromising 6 frog families and 15 genera were sampled for chytrid fungus. No specimens were found to be infected by this fungus and as such the outcome strengthens the previous result of field sampling that there is no support that Bd has spread to Suriname. |
