| [parasites of the gdr. 3. endoparasites of the hare (lepus europeus)]. | 96 hares from the eastern region of the dresden district were examined for endoparasites and the results compared with those of other authors from gdr and the neighbouring countries. out of the 27 endoparasites which up till now are recorded in the middle european region in gdr are found 6 coccidia-spp.: eimeria leporis, e. robertsoni, e. townsendi, e. semisculpta, e. europaea, e. hungarica and the helminths: fasciola hepatica, dicrocoelium dendriticum, cittotaenia denticulata, andrya rhopalocep ... | 1979 | 507443 |
| influence of habitat modification on the intestinal helminth community ecology of cottontail rabbit populations. | the influence of five brush management treatments using the herbicides tebuthiuron and triclopyr, with or without prescribed burning, on the intestinal helminth community of cottontail rabbits (sylvilagus floridanus) was studied in 1987 on the cross timbers experimental range in payne county, oklahoma (usa). six helminth species were found (dermatoxys veligera, trichostrongylus calcaratus, passalurus nonanulatus, wellcomia longejector, taenia pisiformis cystercercus, and mosgovoyia pectinata ame ... | 1990 | 2338720 |
| observations on the seasonal incidence of myxomatosis and its interactions with helminth parasites in the european rabbit (oryctolagus cuniculus). | european rabbits (oryctolagus cuniculus) were collected monthly over a 10-yr period and the incidence of myxomatosis and the size of helminth populations were recorded. myxomatosis occurred annually, always as an epidemic in the latter half of the year and was associated with both an increase in the percentage of animals infected and the size of the infections of the nematodes trichostrongylus retortaeformis and passalurus ambiguus and the cestode mosgovoyia pectinata. it is suggested that myxom ... | 1988 | 3411700 |
| the occurrence and abundance of helminth parasites of the mountain hare lepus timidus (l.) and the wild rabbit oryctolagus cuniculus (l.) in aberdeenshire, scotland. | mountain hares were collected each month between april 1984 and march 1985 and their intestines examined for helminths. 26 rabbits were also collected between july and december 1984 and examined for gastro-intestinal helminths. three nematode and two cestode species were found in the hares while only two nematode and one cestode species were found in the rabbits. trichostrongylus retortaeformis was recorded from 88% of the 193 hares and 92% of the rabbits while comparable figures for passalurus ... | 1986 | 3734402 |
| endoparasites of hares (lepus timidus l. and l. europaeus pallas) in finland. | intestinal and lung parasites of 85 mountain hares (lepus timidus) and 24 european hares (l. europaeus) were examined. the species of parasites found in both hare species were trichostrongylus retortaeformis zeder, 1800; mosgovoyia pectinata goeze, 1782 and protostrongylus pulmonalis froelich, 1802. eimeria semisculpta madsen, 1938 and e. townsendi carvalho, 1943 were found only in the european hares and eimeria leporis nieschulz, 1923 and dicrocoelium dendriticum rudolphi, 1819 only in the moun ... | 1983 | 6644932 |
| parasites of south african wildlife. xv. helminths of scrub hares, lepus saxatilis in the kruger national park. | a total of 145 scrub hares from three localities in the kruger national park were examined for helminths: 124 at skukuza, 15 at shingwedzi, and three each at pretoriuskop and pafuri. trichostrongylus deflexus was the most prevalent and most abundant nematode, and was collected from hares from all four localities. trichostrongylus falculatus was present in three localities. trichostrongylus thomasi and dermatoxys vlakhaasi occurred only at skukuza in 50 and 23%, respectively, of the hares examine ... | 1997 | 9551480 |
| wild rabbit host and some parasites show trophic-level relationships for delta 13c and delta 15n: a first report. | we report the first isotopic study of an animal host-parasite system. parasitic, intestinal nematodes, graphidium strigosum and passalurus ambiguus, were 15n-enriched relative to their host, the european rabbit oryctolagus cuniculus, while parasitic cestodes, cittataenia denticulata and mosgovoyia pectinata, were 15n-depleted, suggesting different trophic relationships. host embryos were more similar in their delta 13c and delta 15n values to maternal muscle than were any of the parasites. copro ... | 1998 | 9854844 |
| patterns of parasite aggregation in the wild european rabbit (oryctolagus cuniculus). | understanding the factors controlling the distribution of parasites within their host population is fundamental to the wider understanding of parasite epidemiology and ecology. to explore changes in parasite aggregation, taylor's power law was used to examine the distributions of five gut helminths of the wild rabbit. aggregation was found to be a dynamic process that varied with year, season, host sex, age class, and myxomatosis. yearly and seasonal changes are thought, in the main, to be the r ... | 2001 | 11595228 |
| the potential role of habitat on intestinal helminths of mountain hares, lepus timidus. | over the last century in the uplands of scotland, the extent of heather moorland which supports high densities of mountain hares lepus timidus has diminished and has gradually been replaced by large-scale commercial forestry plantations or expanding natural woodlands. the potential impact of such a change in land use on host-parasite interactions was investigated by comparing the intensity and prevalence of infection of hares by parasites in two separate habitats: a large hare-fenced young fores ... | 2001 | 11818051 |
| temporal host-parasite relationships of the wild rabbit, oryctolagus cuniculus (l.) as revealed by stable isotope analyses. | natural abundances of the stable isotopes, 15n/14n (delta15n) and 13c/12c (delta13c), were used to study temporal host-parasite relationships of the wild rabbit, oryctolagus cuniculus (l.). during the 12-month sampling period, temporal isotopic shifts in delta15n were noted for dietary vegetation, host rabbit faeces and fur, but not for muscle or stomach contents. delta15n varied temporally for the parasitic cestode species, mosgovoyia pectinata but not for cittotaenia denticulata. similarly, in ... | 2005 | 16145945 |
| wild rabbit host and some parasites show trophic-level relationships for d(13)c and d(15)n: a first report. | abstract we report the first isotopic study of an animal host-parasite system. parasitic, intestinal nematodes, graphidium strigosum and passalurus ambiguus, were (15)n-enriched relative to their host, the european rabbit oryctolagus cuniculus, while parasitic cestodes, cittataenia denticulata and mosgovoyia pectinata, were (15)n-depleted, suggesting different trophic relationships. host embryos were more similar in their d(13)c and d(15)n values to maternal muscle than were any of the parasit ... | 1997 | 22087485 |
| occurrence of gastrointestinal parasites in slaughter rabbits. | the aim of the study was to determine the occurrence of gastrointestinal parasites in slaughter rabbits managed in small scale farms and under industrial farming system. the research material included intestines and livers of rabbits slaughtered between years 2007 and 2011. the rabbit carcasses submitted to parasitological examination had passed the sanitary veterinary inspection as fit for human consumption. the samples were collected in spring and autumn seasons. the studies showed no effect o ... | 2014 | 24100606 |
