| ectoparasites of the blackbuck antelope (antilope cervicapra). | fifty-two free-ranging blackbuck antelope (antilope cervicapra) from texas were examined for ectoparasites. two species of sucking lice (anoplura), one species of chewing louse (mallophaga), one species of louse fly (diptera), and three species of ticks (acari) were found. this is the first report of the anoplurans linognathus cervicaprae and l. pithodes from the western hemisphere. the southern deer ked (lipoptena mazamae), the winter tick (dermacentor albipictus), and the rabbit tick (haemaphy ... | 1992 | 1512888 |
| effects of season and area on ectoparasites of white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in mississippi. | nine species of ectoparasites (4 acari, 2 mallophaga, 1 anoplura, 1 diptera, and 1 siphonaptera) were recovered from 126 white-tailed deer collected in northern, central, and southern mississippi. intensity and prevalence of adults of ixodes scapularis and larvae, nymphs, and adults of amblyomma americanum varied significantly over collection periods, but not between host sexes. lipoptena mazamae occurred on deer from only one study area. although individual deer were heavily parasitized by tric ... | 1987 | 3586204 |

| ectoparasites (acari, mallophaga, anoplura, diptera) of white-tailed deer, odocoileus virginianus, from southern florida. | during a 7-yr period (1984-1990), 300 white-tailed deer, odocoileus virginianus (zimmermann), from 7 localities in collier, dade, and monroe counties in southern florida were examined for ectoparasites. eight species were identified: 4 ticks [ixodes scapularis say, i. affinis neumann, amblyomma maculatum (koch), and dermacentor variabilis (say)], 1 chigger mite [eutrombicula splendens (ewing)], 1 ked (lipoptena mazamae rondani), 1 chewing louse [tricholipeurus lipeuroides (megnin)], and 1 suckin ... | 1996 | 8906911 |
| bartonella spp. in deer keds, lipoptena mazamae (diptera: hippoboscidae), from georgia and south carolina, usa. | deer keds, lipoptena mazamae (diptera: hippoboscidae), were collected from white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) and humans in georgia and south carolina, usa (1 october 2001-6 january 2005) and screened for the presence of dna from bartonella spp. forty deer keds were screened for bartonella spp. by polymerase chain reaction using primers specific to the riboflavin synthase gene (ribc) of bartonella. bartonella species closely related to bartonella schoenbuchensis and to the etiologic agen ... | 2006 | 16870863 |
| phylogenetics and population genetics of the louse fly, lipoptena mazamae, from arkansas, usa. | louse flies, also known as deer keds (lipoptena mazamae rondani), infest cervids such as white-tailed deer, odocoileus virginianus and vector pathogens such as anaplasma and bartonella schoenbuchensis to cattle and humans, respectively. the population genetic structure of 30 l. mazamae collected from white-tailed deer in four regions of arkansas, u.s.a., designated by county boundaries, was examined using dna sequences of a 259-bp region of the mitochondrial dna rrna 16s gene. of the 259 nucleot ... | 2010 | 20534010 |
| parasitism rates of lipoptena guimaraesi and a new record of lipoptena mazamae on ozotoceros bezoarticus from the central pantanal wetlands in brazil. | from may to october of 2006 we collected 143 louse flies of the genus lipoptena on the body surface of 16 pampas deer ozotocerus bezoarticus captured in four farms from the central area of the brazilian pantanal wetlands. we also examined 172 cattle individuals and none of them had louse flies. most of the parasites identified were lipoptena guimaraesi but one specimen of l. mazamae was also found, representing a new host record for this ked fly. the prevalence of l. guimaraesi was 93.8%, the me ... | 2011 | 21722497 |
| molecular characterization of trypanosoma (megatrypanum) spp. infecting cattle (bos taurus), white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus), and elk (cervus elaphus canadensis) in the united states. | in the united states, the generally non-pathogenic trypanosome of cattle is designated trypanosoma (megatrypanum) theileri and is distinguished morphologically from trypanosoma (m.) cervi, a trypanosome originally described in mule deer and elk. phylogenetic studies of the megatrypanum trypanosomes using various molecular markers reveal two lineages, designated tthi and tthii, with several genotypes within each. however, to date there is very limited genetic data for t. theileri, and none for th ... | 2013 | 23683651 |
| detection of bartonella sp. in deer louse flies (lipoptena mazamae) on gray brocket deer (mazama gouazoubira) in the neotropics. | louse flies or deer keds, lipoptena spp., are widespread in neotropical cervids, but the vector-borne pathogens of louse flies had only been previously reported in the northern hemisphere. this is the first report of bartonella spp. in deer louse flies (lipoptena mazamae) in the neotropics collected from gray brocket deer ( mazama gouazoubira ) in southern brazil. dna from bartonella sp. was detected in all 429 l. mazamae collected from 11 road-killed gray brocket deer. the same sequences of dna ... | 2017 | 28749268 |
