Eight of 40 Rhinella marina Linnaeus, 1758 (24 males and 16 females) from Aburra Valley, Antioquia, Colombia, were infected with 2 digenea species: Pseudosonsinotrema chabaudi (Caballero y Caballero, 1969) Sullivan, 1974 (Pleurogenidae), which represents new host and country records, and Mesocoelium monas (Rudolphi, 1819) Freitas, 1958 (Brachycoeliidae), which was previously reported for the country. Pseudosonsinotrema chabaudi in San Antonio de Prado reached the highest prevalence levels (40%) and mean abundance (14.7), whereas the highest mean intensity was recorded for M. monas in cane toads from Barbosa (46.7).
