Abstract:

The Pentastomida are endoparasites occurring primary in vertebrates. In 2002–2003, a total of 38 sea gulls (10, 15, and 13 individuals of Larus argentatus, L. canus, and L. ridibundus respectively) from the environs of the Tricity Gdańsk-Sopot-Gdynia and the Gulf of Gdańsk coast were examined. One of the herring gulls (L. argentatus) was found to carry, in the intraclavicular air sac 12 specimens of Reighardia sternae, all of them ovigerous females. This is the first record of R. sternae from Poland.
