The Role of Birds as Definitive Hosts and Intermediate Hosts of Heteroxenous Coccidians

The Journal of Protozoology, 1984
ABSTRACT. Sarcocystis‐like oocysts‐sporocysts were found in four species of owls (Asio otus, Bubo bubo, Strix aluco, and Tyto alba) and in five species of predatory birds (Accipiter gentilis, Accipiter nisus, Buteo buteo. Circus aeruginosus, Falco tinnunculus).

Innovative tools for the diagnosis of Echinococcus granulosus in definitive hosts

Parasitology Research, 2018
The aim of this study was to develop and validate an innovative protocol for the diagnosis of Echinococcus granulosus and other Taeniidae in dogs. For this purpose, three experiments were performed, using faecal samples from naturally infected dogs. Firstly, the FLOTAC technique was calibrated with five flotation solutions: saturated sodium chloride ...

A SPECIES OF Sarcocystis USING OWLS AS DEFINITIVE HOSTS

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1977
Sporulated oocysts found in the intestines of a Masked Owl (Tyto novaehollandiae) and a Barn Owl (T. alba) produced sarcocysts in mice. Schizonts were found in the livers of 3 mice that died at 7-8 days after dosing. Neither sarcocysts nor schizonts were found in chickens dosed with oocysts from a Masked Owl.

The development of Taenia pisiformis in various definitive host species

International Journal for Parasitology, 1975
Abstract In pups experimentally infected with T. pisiformis evagination and attachment of cysticerci occurred in the small intestine, proglottization was initiated 3–5 DAI and gravid cestodes were recovered on and after 35 DAI. Establishment in fox cubs (Vulpes vulpes) was similar but only a few worms had become gravid by 70 DAI. T.

Development of Brugia tupaiae in the Intermediate and Definitive Hosts

The Journal of Parasitology, 1967
The microfilariae of Brugia tupaiae develop to the third stage in the thoracic muscles of Aedes aegypti (Liverpool strain) in 8.5 to 9 days. Larvae molt twice in the mosquito in the course of their development. The first molt takes place on the 5th day, the second on the 7th or 8th days. Third-stage larvae have average length-width measurements of 1.05

Towards the control of Echinococcus multilocularis in the definitive host in Japan

Parasitology International, 2006
Echinococcus multilocularis is distributed all over Hokkaido, the northern island of Japan. The prevalence in foxes has been around 40% in the last decade. Three trials of anthelmintic bait distribution have been conducted in Hokkaido to reduce the prevalence in foxes. In those trials, bait distribution was done along roads in the study area using cars

Echinostoma population regulation in experimental rodent definitive hosts

Parasitology Research, 1988
Echinostoma population regulation in the experimental rodent host is governed by the capacity of the latter to express an effective regulatory response. Parasite establishment, survival and fecundity are affected by host-related factors such as species, strain and age and by parasite-related factors such as species, age and the burden of infection.

Investigations on the Host Specificity of Dihomoxenous Sarcosporidia in the Intermediate and Definitive Host

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 1994
ABSTRACT. Cross‐transmission experiments were performed in order to determine the host specificity in the intermediate and definitive hosts of the four described dihomoxenous Sarcocystis species, S. gallotiae, S. stehlinii, S. simonyi, and S. dugesii from lacertid lizards of the genera Gallotia and Podarcis from the Macaronesian Islands. Sarcocysts of

[Hosts of Acanthocephala. II--Definitive hosts. 1. Fishes].

Annales de parasitologie humaine et comparee, 1989
From an attentive study of the largest number of available publications, we tried to establish the list of fish species harbouring fully mature Acanthocephala, i.e. females with completely developed eggs. This character is the sole on which we are allowed to assure that this fish is truly a definitive host for the parasite.
