The presence of endoparasites in the feces of Dasyprocta punctata and the comparison of their heterogeneity in terms of species diversity in two vegetation types (guadua forest and fruit areas) were evaluated in Armenia, Quindio-Colombia. Six patches (three guadua forest and three fruit areas) were randomly selected for feces collection. The methods of Kato-Katz and Ritchie were used for the identification of endoparasites at the genus level. The diversity (Shannon-Wiener index) and dominance (Simpson index) were calculated for each vegetation type and compared by a Student’s t-test. A range-abundance curve was generated to determine the most abundant genus in each vegetation type. Ten genera of endoparasites were recorded. The heterogeneity and dominance of these were not different between vegetation types. However, the range-abundance curves showed that Trichuris, Ascaris and Strongyloides were abundant genera in the guadua forest, and Ascaris, Toxocara and Strongyloides were abundant in the fruit areas. Genera such as Ascaris, Toxocara and Trichuris are reported for the first time in D. punctata, which are commonly reported in domestic animals. The higher abundance of Trichuris, Ascaris and Strongyloides in the guadua forest suggests a relationship with microenvironmental variables. Future studies that identify the possible vectors and hosts of these endoparasites are necessary.
