CLINICOPATHOLOGIC FEATURES OF SUSPECTED BREVETOXICOSIS IN DOUBLE-CRESTED CORMORANTS (PHALACROCORAX AURITUS) ALONG THE FLORIDA GULF COAST

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2002
Outbreaks of morbidity and mortality in double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) along Florida's Gulf Coast have occurred sporadically for at least 30 yr. During these outbreaks, the Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife, located on Sanibel Island in Florida, has admitted a substantial number of cormorants with consistent presentation of ...

Isolation and characterization of eight novel microsatellite loci in the double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus)

Conservation Genetics Resources, 2010
We describe the isolation and characterization of eight microsatellite loci from the double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus). Genetic variability was assessed using 60 individuals from three populations. All loci were variable with the number of alleles ranging from two to 17 per locus, and observed heterozygosity varying from 0.05 to 0.89. No

Phylogeography and population genetic structure of double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus)

Conservation Genetics, 2013
We examined the genetic structure of double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) across their range in the United States and Canada. Sequences of the mitochondrial control region were analyzed for 248 cormorants from 23 breeding sites. Variation was also examined at eight microsatellite loci for 409 cormorants from the same sites.

Cardiac responses to first ever submergence in double-crested cormorant chicks (Phalacrocorax auritus)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 1999
Heart rates were recorded from double-crested cormorant chicks during their first ever and subsequent voluntary head submergences and dives, as well as during longer dives made after the chicks were accustomed to diving. Despite variation between chicks, the cardiac response to first ever and subsequent voluntary submergence (head submergences and ...

Two New Species of Helminths from the Cormorant, Phalacrocorax auritus

The Journal of Parasitology, 1950
On November 17, 1947, two cormorants, Phalacrocorax auritus, were sent to Dr. Lyell J. Thomas for study. These birds were shot five miles northwest of Grafton, Illinois on the Illinois River and brought over by Dr. H. B. Mills, Chief of the Illinois State Natural History Survey. With the permission of Dr.
