Unclear relationship exists between the presence of the myxomatosis and the helminth parasites. The only available
data of the influence of this virus on the helminth fauna are reported in the experimental work by Mykytowycz (1959)
and, under natural conditions, by Boag (1985) in Scotland and Molina et al. (1998) in Iberian Peninsula. Mykytowycz (1959)
reported an increase in the number of Graphidium strigosum in myxomatous rabbits.
