MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF AVIAN VIRUSES IN NEOTROPIC CORMORANTS (PHALACROCORAX BRASILIANUS) IN CHILE

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2019
We identified two RNA (paramyxovirus and coronavirus) and two DNA (adenovirus and herpesvirus) viruses in a common aquatic bird, the Neotropic Cormorant ( Phalacrocorax brasilianus), and determined their phylogenetic relationships to other global circulating variants.

Contracaecum rudolphii Hartwich (Nematoda, Anisakidae) from the Neotropical Cormorant, Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Gmelin) (Aves, Phalacrocoracidae) in southern Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira De Zoologia, 2006
The present report is part of a larger study on the helminth fauna of Neotropical Cormorants, Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Gmelin, 1789) in Brazil, particularly, in the southernmost State of Rio Grande do Sul. The nematodes which were found loose in the proventriculus/ventriculus or in groups of adults of different ages and of L3 and L4 larval stages ...

Metals and Metalloids in Feathers of Neotropic Cormorants (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) Nesting in Lake Livingston and Richland Creek, Texas, USA

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2021
Breast feathers of Neotropic Cormorants (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) from two nesting colonies in Lake Livingston (LALIV) and Richland Creek, Texas, were collected during 2014 and were analyzed for metals and metalloids. Mean concentrations of Al, As, Cr, Cu, Fe, Pb, Sb, and Se were not significantly different in breast feathers of cormorants from the ...

Low occurrence of hemosporidian parasites in the Neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) in Chile

Parasitology Research, 2018
Hemosporidian parasites rarely infect aquatic birds. Few studies have been conducted in South America identifying some lineages of the genera Plasmodium, Leucocytozoon, and Haemoproteus, but none has been done in the Neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus).

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Neotropic cormorant ( Phalacrocorax brasilianus )

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2015
The complete sequence of the Neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) mitochondrial DNA was obtained by the shotgun sequencing approach. The mitogenome is 19 042 bp in length and includes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal subunit genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, a control region and a duplicated region of 2418 bp.

Diet of Neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) in an estuarine environment

Marine Biology, 2007
The diet of the Neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) was studied by analysing 289 regurgitated pellets collected from a roosting site at Lagoa dos Patos estuary, southern Brazil, between November 2001 and October 2002 (except April to June). In total, 5,584 remains of prey items from 20 food types were found.

Population Growth and Seasonal Abundance of the Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) at Highland Lakes in Ecuador

Waterbirds, 2011
Abstract. Population growth of piscivorous species raises concerns when it could affect aquaculture activities. In this study, an increase of the Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) population in the Ecuadorian Andes was documented using census data from three high Andean lakes (Yahuarcocha, San Pablo and Yambo) for 2004–2010.

Trophic position of the Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus): integrating diet and stable isotope analysis

Journal of Ornithology, 2012
Stable isotope analysis has been extensively used to establish trophic relationships within avian communities of marine ecosystems. The Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) is a good representative of marine bird communities along the northern coasts of South America.

Infection by Contracaecum rudolphii (Nematoda: Anisakidae) in the Neotropic cormorant Phalacrocorax brasilianus, and fishes from the estuary of the Valdivia river, Chile

Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2000
Seasonal parameters of infection by the nematode Contracaecum rudolphii in the Neotropic cormorant Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Phalacrocoracidae) and their relation with feeding and infection in fishes from River Valdivia, Chile, were determined. The prevalences of infection in birds were similar during seasons, whereas mean intensity and percentages of

A new species of Andracantha Schmidt (Acanthocephala, Polymorphidae) parasite of Neotropical cormorants, Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Gmelin) (Aves, Phalacrocoracidae) from southern Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira De Zoologia, 2006
A new species of the genus Andracantha Schmidt, 1975, parasite of Neotropical cormorants, Phalacrocorax brasilianus (Gmelin, 1789), is described and compared to the other six species currently placed in the genus. The new species differs from the previously known species of Andracantha by having two inflations in the anterior region of the trunk and by
