| culicoides (diptera: ceratopogonidae) associated with white-tailed deer habitat and livestock operations in the northern great plains. | twelve culicoides species were collected from white-tailed deer habitat and cattle operations in the northern great plains as part of an ongoing study of the geographical distribution and seasonal occurrence of c. variipennis and other species in north dakota. c. variipennis, c. obsoletus, and c. stellifer were collected in both western and eastern counties. c. arboricola, c. hinmani, c. nanus, and c. palmerae are reported for the first time from north dakota. | 1993 | 8510124 |
| distribution and ecology of meningeal worm, parelaphostrongylus tenuis (nematoda), in northcentral north america. | meningeal worm (parelaphostrongylus tenuis), a common nematode parasite in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) and pathogenic for several species of ungulates in eastern north america, is not known to occur in the west. heads of 1,902 white-tailed deer were examined for adult meningeal worm to determine geographic distribution of the parasite in saskatchewan and manitoba (canada) and north dakota (usa). finding the parasite in a deer in eastern saskatchewan near the manitoba border establ ... | 2003 | 12910761 |
| molecular identification of vertebrate and hemoparasite dna within mosquito blood meals from eastern north dakota. | to understand local transmission of vector-borne diseases, it is important to identify potential vectors, characterize their host feeding patterns, and determine if vector-borne pathogens are circulating within the region. this study simultaneously investigated these aspects of disease transmission by collecting engorged mosquitoes within two rural study sites in the central red river valley of north dakota. mosquitoes were identified, midguts were excised, and the blood was expelled from the mi ... | 2013 | 24107213 |
| climate and habitat influence prevalence of meningeal worm infection in north dakota, usa. | the meningeal worm (parelaphostrongylus tenuis) is a parasite of white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) and is also a significant pathogen of moose (alces alces) and other ungulates. changes in climate or habitat may facilitate range expansion or increase the prevalence of meningeal worm infection in white-tailed deer, resulting in increased exposure to susceptible ungulates. we examined 3,730 white-tailed deer during 2002-05 to determine the prevalence and range of meningeal worm infection ... | 2015 | 25973622 |
