apteragia pursglovei sp. n. (trichostrongyloidea: trichostrongylidae) from the white-tailed deer, odocoileus virginianus.two species of apteragia were found in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) from 152 counties in 13 southeastern states. specimens previously reported as skrjabinagia odocoilei were reidentified as belonging to 2 similar species of the genus apteragia, a. odocoilei, and a. pursglovei sp. n. apteragia pursglovei sp. n. is differentiated primarily by the length, conformation, and degree of sclerotization of the spicules. of the 824 deer, a. odocoilei occurred in 76.5%, a. pursglovei in 13.8% ...1979448613
white-tailed deer as a potential reservoir of ehrlichia spp.we determined the antibody prevalence to ehrlichia spp., in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) and the geographic distribution of seropositive animals in 84 counties in alabama, arkansas, florida, georgia, illinois, kentucky, louisiana, maryland, massachusetts, mississippi, missouri, north carolina, south carolina, tennessee, texas, virginia, and west virginia (usa). using an indirect fluorescent antibody test we detected antibodies (> or = 1:128) to this bacterium in 544 (43%) of 1269 d ...19948028099
culture and serologic survey for mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection among southeastern white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus).from july 1998 through october 2002, radiometric culture (ileocecal lymph node, mesenteric lymph node, and feces) and serologic testing by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) were used to survey white-tailed deer (odocoilens virgianus) from the soutlheastern united states for infection by mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (mptb), the causative agent of paratuberculosis (johne's disease). mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis was isolated from the ileocecal lymph node of one ...200415362831
parasitism among white-tailed deer and domestic sheep on common range.parasitism was studied in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) and domestic sheep (ovis aries) which shared a common range in eastern west virginia. of 30 species of internal parasites, 11 were found in deer and 22 in sheep. five parasites, sarcocystis sp., cysticercus tenuicollis, oesophagostomum venulosum, cooperia punctata, and gongylonema pulchrum, occurred in both deer and sheep. an index of similarity of 17.2 suggests that the parasite faunas of these hosts are distinct, and that it ...197616498882
epizootiology of an epizootic hemorrhagic disease outbreak in west virginia.an outbreak of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus, serotype 2 (ehdv-2) was responsible for localized white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) mortality in hardy and hampshire counties, west virginia (usa), in the summer and fall of 1993. using available historical data on regional herd immunity, data opportunistically collected during the epizootic, and postepizootic sampling of hunter-harvested deer, we grossly estimate certain epidemiologic parameters and compare findings to a hypothesis ab ...200415465704
an update on the distribution of parelaphostrongylus tenuis in the southeastern united states.an update is presented on the distribution of the meningeal worm (parelaphostrongylus tenuis) of white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in the southeastern united states. the parasite is widely distributed and common in all or much of arkansas, kentucky, louisiana, maryland, north carolina, tennessee, virginia and west virginia. it is also common in the northern half of alabama and georgia. in contrast, it is rare or absent along the atlantic and gulf coastal plains of alabama, georgia, miss ...19912067060
