| morphological and genetic differentiation of rodentolepis straminea (goeze, 1752) and rodentolepis microstoma (dujardin, 1845) (hymenolepididae). | the two related species, rodentolepis straminea (goeze, 1782) and rodentolepis microstoma (dujardin, 1845) (cestoda, hymenolepididae), both parasites of rodents, were compared morphologically and electrophoretically. adult worms were isolated from three wild rodent species of the family muridae (apodemus flavicollis, apodemus sylvaticus, and mus musculus) from three different sites in spain and france. although these two species were strikingly similar in morphological appearance, some of the mo ... | 2001 | 11411941 |
| helminths from introduced small mammals on kerguelen, crozet, and amsterdam islands (southern indian ocean). | four monoxenous nematodes and 1 heteroxenous cestode were found in 4 species of introduced small mammals on isolated sub-antarctic islands of the indian ocean. in the kerguelen archipelago, syphacia obvelata, passalurus ambiguus (nematoda: oxyuridae), and rodentolepis straminea (cestoda: cyclophyllidae) were respectively found in the house mouse mus musculus, the rabbit oryctolagus cuniculus, and the black rat rattus rattus. one accidental nematode, trichostrongylus sp. (nematoda: trichostrongyl ... | 2001 | 11695402 |
| the helminth community of the wood mouse apodemus sylvaticus from the erro river valley, navarre, spain. | the helminth fauna of the wood mouse, apodemus sylvaticus, in the erro river valley (navarre, spain) was investigated from a total of 150 mice between february 2001 and july 2002. an overall prevalence of 90.7% was recorded and up to 14 helminth species identified. the most prevalent species was the nematode heligmosomoides polygyrus (78.0%), whereas syphacia stroma was the species with the highest median abundance (19.8). the detection of calodium hepaticum, rodentolepis straminea and the larva ... | 2015 | 25007313 |
| protecting free-living dormice: molecular identification of cestode parasites in captive dormice (muscardinus avellanarius) destined for reintroduction. | the success of any population translocation programme relies heavily on the measures implemented to control and monitor the spread of disease. without these measures, programmes run the risk of releasing immunologically naïve species or, more dangerously, introducing novel infectious agents to native populations. as a precaution, a reintroduction programme for the common or hazel dormouse, muscardinus avellanarius, in england screens dormice before release following captive breeding. using pcr s ... | 2017 | 26957436 |
| rodentolepis straminea (cestoda: hymenolepididae) in an urban population of apodemus sylvaticus in the uk. | the presence of the cyclophyllidean cestode rodentolepis straminea (cestoda: hymenolepididae), was confirmed by molecular dna analysis from a wood mouse (apodemus sylvaticus) population inhabiting urban woodland in salford, greater manchester (uk) with a prevalence of 27.8%. it would appear that the only previously published record of this species in a. sylvaticus in the british isles is that from south-west ireland, where 24% of the wood mice examined were infected with r. straminea. this speci ... | 2016 | 26278677 |
