Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Infection levels and species diversity of ascaridoid nematodes in Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, are correlated with geographic area and fish size [PDF]

, 2018
Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is among the most important commercial fish species on the world market. Its infection by ascaridoid nematodes has long been known, Pseudoterranova even being named cod worm.

Wildlife health risk analysis for conservation translocation: A scalable approach illustrated for wader population restoration

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
We present a methodological framework for health risk analysis (disease risk analysis) for conservation translocation that enables the process to be scaled and adapted to the project context. We illustrate its application to two wader (shorebird) population restoration projects with differing translocation plans.

New discoveries from the early Māori village at Shag River Mouth, New Zealand, reveal intestinal parasites

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 149-153, April 2024.
Abstract Presented here are the results of archaeoparasitological analysis of habitation layers at Shag River Mouth, Otago coast. Two types of helminth eggs were identified: The first type is Toxocara canis, associated with the introduced kurī dog (Canis familiaris), which could have adversely affected local people and their dogs.

DNA Barcoding of Nematode Parasites Infecting Ompok bimaculatus and Nemacheilus anguilla From Barvi Reservoir, Maharashtra

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
In the present study, the DNA barcoding of the nematode parasite infecting Ompok bimaculatus and Nemacheilus anguilla fish species was carried out in Barvi Reservoir, Maharashtra. To ascertain the taxonomic status of these nematode parasites, an 18S gene marker was used.

A case of contracaecum sp. (ascaridida: anisakidae) infection in dalmatian pelican (pelecanus crispus)

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2012
Contracaecum genus (Ascaridida: Anisakidae) is a nematode parasite of the fish-eating birds throughout the world. A heavy infection of Contracaecum sp. was detected at the necropsy of a Dalmatian pelican (Pelecanus crispus) that had been referred to an animal hospital due to trauma and died before the initiation of any treatment.
