在伯利兹中北部采集了黑吼猴(Alouatta Pgra)的粪便样本，并分析了内寄生虫生活史的证据。1999年，在拉马奈考古保护区和蝙蝠社区保护区收集的Alouatta pgra粪便样本中，至少发现了六种内寄生虫。其中包括一种双基因吸虫、一种氧化尿类线虫、一种粗线型线虫、一种被认为是蛔虫的蛔虫、结肠内阿米巴和布氏隐阿米巴。与幼体相比，成体的吸虫感染率较高，所有动物的线虫幼虫在雨季的患病率均高于枯季。
Fecal samples were collected from black howler monkeys (Alouatta pigra) in north central Belize and analyzed for evidence of endoparasite life stages. At least six types of endoparasites were found in Alouatta pigra fecal samples collected in the Lamanai Archaeological Reserve and the Community Baboon Sanctuary in 1999. These include a digenean trematode, an oxyurid nematode, a strongyle-type nematode, an ascarid presumed to be Ascaris sp., Entamoeba coli and Iodamoeba butschlii. Higher trematode prevalence was found in adult Alouatta pigra compared to juveniles and higher prevalence of nematode larvae in all animals was found in the wet season compared to the dry season.
