14. Abbreviata uzbekistana Bogdanov and Markov (1955)
This parasite of the stomach, rarely of the oesophagus and intestine, was described by Bogdanov and Markov (1955). It has been found in several distantly related reptiles, such as agamas, geckoes and the saw-scaled viper from Dagestan ( Russia), Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan ( Sharpilo, 1976). Echis carinatus is probably postcyclic, not definitive host of this spirurine nematode.
In addition, larvae of the following nematodes unidentified to the genus or even family level were reported from E. carinatus : Acuaroidea gen. sp. in Turkmenistan ( Velikanov, 1984); Omeiinae gen. sp. (Quim-
periidae) in Turkmenistan ( Markov et al., 1970). One of the present authors (R.K.S.) found the following helminths in the saw-scaled viper from the United Arab Emirates, but these records were presented only at an international conference ( Schuster and Sivakumar, 2013): cestodes Joyeuxiella sp. , most probably J. pasqualei (Diamare, 1893) , and Diplopylidium noelleri ( Cestoda); acanthocephalan larvae Centrorhynchus aluconis and Macracanthorhynchus catulinus Kostylew, 1927 ; and larvae of spirurine nematodes, most probably Physocephalus dromedarii Muschkambarova, 1967 .
