Incidence and Effects of Cuterebra in Peromyscus

Journal of Mammalogy, 1967
Peromyscus leucopus is the favored host for Cuterebra angustifrons on the AEC Reservation near Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Feromyscus nuttalli is a host of C. angustifrons also, but no other cricetid (5 species, > 4000 captures) was infested. Percentages of infestation in P.

PREVALENCE OF Cuterebra emasculator IN SQUIRRELS IN MISSISSIPPI

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1981
Between 1977 and 1979, 1,997 gray squirrels (Scriurus carolinensis) and 290 fox squirrels (S. niger) were examined for Cuterebra emasculator myiasis. Approximately 19% of the gray and 5% of the fox squirrels were infested with 1.9 and 2.5 larvae per host, respectively. Myiasis was seen between 14 August and 29 October. Peak infestations occurred in the

Intracerebral Migration of Cuterebra Larva in a Kitten

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1978
SUMMARY Verminous encephalitis in a 4-week-old kitten was manifested by depression, hysteria, and terminal convulsions. Necropsy revealed a second instar of Cuterebra sp in the right cerebral hemisphere. The main lesions in the brain were those of acute focal hemorrhagic encephalomalacia.

Cuterebra encephalitis in a dog.

The Cornell veterinarian, 1976
Encephalitis was diagnosed in a 3 1/2-month-old puppy, based on neurological signs, and cerebrospinal fluid examinations. Verminous encephalitis from a migrating Cuterebra sp. larva in the right cerebral hemisphere was confirmed at necropsy.

Cutaneous Myiasis of the Eyelid due to Cuterebra Larva

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1987
HUMAN myiasis is the invasion of the body tissues of man by larvae of flies of the order Diptera. The disease occurs worldwide and many species of flies are involved. 1 Occurrence in the United States is infrequent, and human myiasis caused by the highly host-specific botflies is rare.

Effects of Cuterebra angustifrons on Plasma Proteins of Peromyscus leucopus

The Journal of Parasitology, 1965
Marked alterations of plasma protein distribution occurred in white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) infested with botfly (Cuterebra angustifrons) larvae. Reductions in the albumin-to-globulin ratio of animals infested with botfly larvae were correlated significantly with the number of larvae present. Development of the Cuterebra larva in the host was

Ophthalmomyiasis interna anterior associated with Cuterebra spp in a cat

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2000
An 8-year-old domestic shorthair cat was examined for severe anterior uveitis of the right eye that was unresponsive to aggressive treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs and for a possible intraocular parasite or foreign body trapped within a large fibrin clot in the anterior chamber.

Cuterebra buccata: Immune response in myiasis of domestic rabbits

Experimental Parasitology, 1973
Abstract Naturally infected rabbits ( Oryctolagus ) were used to define further the nature of the immune response in myiasis due to Cuterebra buccata . Third instar larvae were dissected into four fractions; (1) alimentary tract with attached organs, (2) hemolymph, (3) fat body with tracheae, and (4) cuticle with attached muscles.

C., was in an earlier stage, white with small black spines along the anterior and posterior margins of the segments, and measured 6.4 mm. long in a contracted condition. Other sites of infection in cats, listed by Hall, were on the back, the belly, beside the eye, and under the

Aggregation and Territoriality of Cuterebra Lepivora (Diptera: Cuterebridae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1980
Two aggregations of male Cuterebra lepivora were discovered in an open area of brush and dry grasses in Poso Creek basin, Kern Co., California, USA. Males established and defended territories against conspecific males and responded to females that entered their territories.
