description of the larva of ceratophyllus vagabundus vagabundus (siphonaptera: ceratophyllidae) from nests of ross's and lesser snow geese in nunavut, canada.abstract adults of the flea, ceratophyllus vagabundus vagabundus , were present in the hundreds in nests of ross's ( chen rossii ) and lesser snow ( chen caerulescens caerulescens ) geese in the arctic goose colony at karrak lake, nunavut, canada. ceratophyllus v. vagabundus had not been previously recorded in association with ross's or snow geese. large numbers of c. v. vagabundus adults and larvae were collected and a description of the larva is provided for the first time. on the basis of ext ...201121506868
multi-scale occupancy approach to estimate toxoplasma gondii prevalence and detection probability in tissues: an application and guide for field sampling.increasingly, birds are recognised as important hosts for the ubiquitous parasite toxoplasma gondii, although little experimental evidence exists to determine which tissues should be tested to maximise the detection probability of t. gondii. also, arctic-nesting geese are suspected to be important sources of t. gondii in terrestrial arctic ecosystems, but the parasite has not previously been reported in the tissues of these geese. using a domestic goose model, we applied a multi-scale occupancy ...201627155329
