the role of b chromosomes in the population dynamics of yellow-necked wood mice apodemus flavicollis (rodentia, mammalia).seasonal changes in the frequency of animals with b chromosomes were studied during 1989 in the population of yellow-necked wood mice, apodemus flavicollis, on the mountain jastrebac in yugoslavia. during the study the estimated density of animals reached a very large value (378.8 individuals/ha for the april sample), which produced stress conditions leading to population decline. six samples with a total of 247 specimens were karyotypically analyzed. animals with bs were present in all samples ...19957557359
collyricloides massanae vaucher, 1969, in a starling (sturnus vulgaris l.) in the netherlands.collyricloides massanae (trematoda: collyriclidae) is described from cysts in the wall of the small intestine of a starling (sturnus vulgaris l.) in the netherlands. the original descriptin was from a yellow necked mouse, apodemus flavicollis (melchior), so this is the first record of the species in birds.19807410811
comparative effect of the three rodenticides warfarin, difenacoum and brodifacoum on eight rodent species in short feeding periods.short laboratory feeding tests were carried out with the anticoagulants warfarin, difenacoum, and brodifacoum on a number of european rodent species: clethrionomys glareolus, microtus agrestis, m. arvalis, apodemus flavicollis, a. sylvaticus, mus musculus, rattus rattus and r. norvegicus. it was found that the toxicity to all species was highest with brodifacoum and lowest with warfarin, and that only 0.005% brodifacoum would give a complete mortality in most species after one day's feeding. the ...19817019316
prevalence of pneumocystis carinii delanoë & delanoë, 1912 in rodents in denmark.pneumocystis carinii has been found in 17 of 90 (19%) wild living trapped brown rats (rattus norvegicus). the positive brown rats originated from about 25% of the trapping localities examined. among brown rats of two breeding stocks, h and s, pneumocysts were found in 43.5% of the h rats, but in none of the s rats. by keeping brown h rats on a low protein diet for 8 weeks, it was possible to augment the prevalence to 53.8%. pneumocystis carinii has furthermore been found in one of eight (12.5%) ...19806965782

study of rickettsioses in slovakia. ii. infestation of fleas and mites in mole nests in some localities in central slovakia with c. burneti and rickettsiae belonging to the spotted fever (sf) group.fleas and mites obtained from 115 mole nests in central slovakia from an area where q fever and rickettsiosis due to rickettsie of the sf occur, from the border of this area and apart from it, were tested for infestation with rickettsiae by the method of isolation of rickettsiae on chick embryo yolk sacs, by the method of detection of rickettsiae on smears from the arthropods using immunofluorescence, by the method of exposure of albino mice and apodemus flavicollis to mole nests and by the meth ...19751102597
study of rickettsioses in slovakia. iii. experimental infection of apodemus flavicollis melch. by rickettsiae of the spotted fever (sf) group isolated in slovakia.experimental studies of infection of apodemus flavicollis, and for comparison of rickettsiaemia in clethrionomys glareolus and of susceptibility and antibody formation in white mice, with rickettsiae of the sf group isolated in slovakia, gave the following results: the species a. flavicollis reacted by the formation of antibodies on subcutaneous administration of rickettsiae, strain b, in an amount of 10(0.5) eid 50/0.25 ml, whereas the white mouse only in an amount of 10(2.5). rickettsiae, stra ...19761036998
haemaphysalis (allophysalis) danieli, sp. n. (ixodoidea: ixodidae), female and tentatively associated immature stages from high mountains of northern pakistan and afghanistan.haemaphysalis (allophysalis) danieli sp. n. is described from a female taken from alpine vegetation in swat, pakistan. fifty-one nymphal and larval ticks tentatively associated with this taxon are from hamsters, field mice, voles, and marmots (rodentia), cricetulus migratorius, apodemus flavicollis, alticola roylei, and marmota caudata, and from pikas (lagomorpha), ochotona roylei, in gilgit and hazara districts of pakistan and in badakhashan province of afghanistan. collecting localities are in ...1977864574

[the importance of laelaps agilis c.l. koch 1836 (mesostigmata: parasitiformae) as a vector of hepatozoon sylvatici coles 1914 (sporozoa: haemogregarinidae) (author's transl)].the importance of the mite laelaps agilis (parasitiformae) for the transmission of the hepatozoon species living in the blood of apodemus sylvaticus and apodemus flavicollis (hepatozoon sylvatici) is examined. with this mite the experimental transfer of the parasite to bred hosts of the same species was successful five times; for once, the transmission to a non-specific host (clethrionomys glareolus) was also possible. besides, an eventual stimulating effect emanating from the gonads of female m ...1977413271
[additional observations to the biology of hepatozoon erhardovae krampitz 1964 in bank voles from the south-western styria and from areas around the neusiedlersee (burgenland) (author's transl)].the incidence of hepatozoon erhardovae in the blood of bank voles (clethrionomys glareolus) captured in the investigated areas is examined. the biology of schizonts, their distribution in the lobes of the lung and the further development of natural infections in vertebrate hosts kept strictly free of ectoparasites are observed. the accumulation of gametocytes in larvae of the tick ixodes ricinus and of the mite neotrombicula zachvatkini after sucking on strongly infected bank voles is pointed ou ...1977413270
investigation on the transfer of fleas among small mammals using radioactive phosphorus.the transfer of fleas megabothris turbidus, ctenophthalmus agyrtes, nosopsyllus fasciatus etc. was investigated by labelling the bank vole (clethrionomys glareolus schreb.) with radioactive phosphorus. on the one hand, the process of flea transfer was traced among different individuals of the same host species, and on the other, among different host species (c. glareolus, apodemus flavicollis melch.). the investigations revealed that the flea transfer in a rodent nest visited by another host dep ...1979396209
isolation of tettnang virus from ticks, mosquitoes and small rodents.seven strains of tettnang virus were isolated in czechoslovakia: 3 from ixodes ricinus tick nymphs, males and females, one from dermacentor reticulatus tick females, one from aedes cantans mosquitoes and two strains from the brains of clethrionomys glareolus and apodemus flavicollis small rodents.197935963
massive occurrence of rickettsiae of the spotted fever group in fowl tampan, argas persicus, in the armenian s.s.r.fowl tampans (argas persicus) collected in oktemberyan in the armenian s.s.r. in 1974 were found to be massively infected with rickettsiae of the spotted fever (sf) group. one isolated rickettsial strain, designated armenia 9, is antigenically related to, and probably identical with, strain armenia 11 and strain b of rickettsia slovaca, isolated from dermacentor marginatus ticks. strain armenia 9 grows readily in chick embryo yolk sacs and in chick embryo cell (cec) and l-cell cultures. it cause ...197722239
