The bursa cloacae (Fabricii) of struthioniforms in comparison with the bursa of other birds

Journal of Morphology, 1982
AbstractThe late embryonic and postembryonic genesis of the bursa cloacae (Fabricii) of struthioniforms and other birds is described and discussed. The bursa of ostrich and emu is a wall organ of the caudal cloacal chamber. The bursa of rhea is, like the bursa of Gallus, a cranial appendix of the proctodeum.

Pelvic limb musculature in the emuDromaius novaehollandiae (Aves: Struthioniformes: Dromaiidae): Adaptations to high-speed running

Journal of Morphology, 1998
Emus provide an excellent opportunity for studying sustained high-speed running by a bird. Their pelvic limb musculature is described in detail and morphological features characteristic of a cursorial lifestyle are identified. Several anatomical features of the pelvic limb reflect the emus' ability for sustained running at high speeds: (1) emus have a ...

Mixed infection by Libyostrongylus douglassii and L. dentatus (Nematoda: Trichostrongylidae) in Struthio camelus (Ratites: Struthioniformes) from Brazil with further morphological characterization of adults

Veterinary Parasitology, 2008
The genus Libyostrongylus includes three species, L. douglassii, L. dentatus and L. magnus that occur as parasites in the proventriculus of Struthio camelus. We confirmed a mixed infection by L. douglassii and L. dentatus in farmed ostriches from the southeast of Brazil for the first time, and provided new information on some morphological characters ...

Further study of Codiostomum struthionis (Horst, 1885) Railliet and Henry, 1911 (Nematoda, Strongylidae) parasite of ostriches (Struthio camelus Linnaeus, 1758) (Aves, Struthioniformes)

Veterinary Parasitology, 2008
Codiostomum struthionis is a nematode parasite of the ostrich caecum. Little is known about its pathology, being considered by many authors as a non-pathogenic parasite. Infections by C. struthionis are sometimes overlooked because its eggs are indistinguishable from another ostrich nematode, Libyostrongylus spp.

Lautkommunikation von Flachbrustvögeln (Struthioniformes)

2011
Bislang galten die Forschungen der Vogelvokalisation vorwiegend den passerinen Vogelarten, während die der Arten der Ordnung Struthioniformes eher unbekannt ist. In dieser Studie wurde die akustische Kommunikation dieser Flachbrustvögel untersucht, speziell die der Familien der Struthionidae, Rheidae und Dromaiidae.

Megninia casuaricola sp. n. (Acari: Analgidae), the first feather mite from a cassowary (Aves: Struthioniformes: Casuariidae)

Australian Journal of Entomology, 2001
AbstractA new species of mite from the family Analgidae, Megninia casuaricola sp. n., is described from the feathers of a southern cassowary, Casuarius casuarius (L.). Until now, cassowaries were among the few terrestrial birds thought to be without feather mites. The new species of mite is readily distinguished from other described species of Megninia

Emerging diseases in poultry: The role of Apolonia tigipioensis Torres and Braga, 1938 (Trombidiformes: Leeuwenhoekiidae) in avian parasitism, including the first record of parasitism in the greater rhea, Rhea americana (L., 1758) (Struthioniformes: Rheidae)

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports
The larval chigger mite Apolonia tigipioensis Torres and Braga is an obligatory hypodermic parasite found in South America. Its parasitism can significantly affect the host's health, leading to nodular lesions that consequently result in the host's death.
