factors influencing the fecal egg and oocyst counts of parasites of wild european rabbits oryctolagus cuniculus (l.) in southern western australia.	abundance of intestinal parasites was monitored by fecal egg and oocyst counts for samples of wild rabbits oryctolagus cuniculus with different levels of imposed female sterility from 12 populations in southwestern australia. differences in egg counts of trichostrongylus retortaeformis between seasons and age groups were dependent on the sex of the host. pregnancy may have been responsible for these differences because egg counts were consistently higher in intact females than in females surgica ...	1999	10577712
evaluation of the association of parasitism with mortality of wild european rabbits oryctolagus cuniculus (l.) in southwestern australia.	abundances of the parasitic nematodes trichostrongylus retortaeformis and passalurus ambiguus, and 8 eimeria species were estimated by fecal egg and oocyst output in 12 discrete free-ranging populations of wild rabbits (oryctolagus cuniculus) in southwestern australia. comparisons of parasite egg and oocyst counts were made between those rabbits known to have survived at least 2 mo after fecal samples were collected and those rabbits that did not survive. there were significant negative relation ...	1999	10577713
