9627299 Goldberg This award will support a planning visit by Dr. Stephen R. Goldberg of Whittier College to go to Mexico City to work with Dr. Guillermo Salgado Maldonado at the Instituto de Biologia at the Universidad Nacional Automona de Mexico. They will meet to plan a research project involving a helminthological survey of amphibians and reptiles of Mexico. This fauna is one of the largest and diverse in the world. During their visit, they will focus on what particular group should be examined. Should it be a specific species, or group, or a single species from a range of habitats? Dr. G. Salgado Maldonado and his students will collect the reptiles and amphibians, dissect them and collect parasites. Dr. Goldberg and his Whittier colleague, Dr. Charles R. Bursey will identify these parasites back in the U.S. Dr. Goldberg will also examine amphibians and reptiles already collected and stored in museums in Mexico. There is literature in Mexico that is not available in the U.S. Most of the data already published in this area has involved western North America. This project will allow the research to extend southward into Mexico. ***

9627299 Goldberg该奖项将支持惠蒂尔学院的Stephen R. Goldberg博士计划访问墨西哥城，与墨西哥国立汽车大学生物研究所的Guillermo Salgado Maldonado博士一起工作。他们将会面计划一项研究项目，涉及对墨西哥两栖动物和爬行动物的蠕虫学调查。这里的动物群是世界上规模最大、种类繁多的动物之一。在访问期间，他们将重点关注应该检查哪些特定群体。它应该是一个特定的物种，或群体，还是来自一系列栖息地的单一物种？萨尔加多·马尔多纳多博士和他的学生将收集爬行动物和两栖动物，解剖它们并收集寄生虫。戈德堡博士和他的同事查尔斯·r·伯西博士将在美国鉴定这些寄生虫。戈德堡博士还将检查已经收集并保存在墨西哥博物馆的两栖动物和爬行动物。墨西哥的文献在美国是找不到的，这个领域已经发表的大多数数据都涉及北美西部。这个项目将使研究向南延伸到墨西哥。＊＊＊
