A total of 114 Oestrus ovis larvae were collected, including 87 (76.32%) first stage larvae, 25 (21.93%) second stage larvae and 2 (1.75%) third stage larvae from the regions given above.Öğe Chewing lice (phthiraptera) found on wild birds in Turkey(Veteriner Fakultesi Dergisi, 2011) Dik B.; Erdoğdu Yamaç E.; Uslu U.This study was performed to detect chewing lice on some birds investigated in Eskişehir and Konya provinces in Central Anatolian Region of Turkey between 2008 and 2010 years. For this aim, 31 bird specimens belonging to 23 bird species which were injured or died were examined for the louse infestation. Firstly, the feathers of each bird were inspected macroscopically, all observed louse specimens were collected and then the examined birds were treated with a synthetic pyrethroid spray (Biyo avispray-Biyoteknik®). The collected lice were placed into the tubes with 70% alcohol and mounted on slides with Canada balsam after being cleared in KOH 10%. Then the collected chewing lice were identified under the light microscobe. Eleven out of totally 31 (35.48%) birds were found to be infested with at least one chewing louse species. Eighteen lice species were found belonging to 16 genera on infested birds. Thirteen of 18 lice species; Actornithophilus piceus piceus (Denny, 1842); Anaticola phoenicopteri (Coincide, 1859); Anatoecus pygaspis (Nitzsch, 1866); Colpocephalum heterosoma Piaget, 1880; C. polonum Eichler and Zlotorzycka, 1971; Fulicoffula lurida (Nitzsch, 1818); Incidifrons fulicia (Linnaeus, 1758); Meromenopon meropis Clay ve Meinertzhagen, 1941; Meropoecus meropis (Denny, 1842); Pseudomenopon pilosum (Scopoli, 1763); Rallicola fulicia (Denny, 1842); Saemundssonia lari Fabricius, O, 1780), and Trinoton femoratum Piaget, 1889 have been recorded from Turkey for the first time.Öğe Chewing lice (phthiraptera) species found on Turkish shorebirds (charadriiformes)(Veteriner Fakultesi Dergisi, 2010) Dik B.; Şekercioğlu C.H.; Kirpik M.A.; Inak S.; Uslu U.This study was carried out to determine chewing lice species of waders between September-October 2009 at Lake Kuyucuk Bird Ringing Station in Kars, eastern Turkey. Fourty-one birds belonging to two families (Scolopacidae and Sternidae), five genera and the following species were examined: Chlidonias leucopterus, Gallinago gallinago, Tringa glareola, Calidris minuta, Calidris alpina, Calidris temminckii, and Philomachus pugnax. Birds were caught in mistnets, ringed, examined for ectoparasites and released unharmed. To sample chewing lice, the feathers of each bird were carefully rubbed with a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide dust, over a white piece of paper. Thereafter, birds were placed in a breathable paper bag for 5 min. All lice were collected and placed in tubes with 70% alcohol. Lice specimens were cleared in 10% KOH, mounted in Canada balsam and identified under binoculer light microscope. Thirty-six out of 41 birds examined (88%) were infested with at least one chewing louse species. All individuals of Chlidonias leucopterus, Calidris minuta, C. alpina, C. temminckii and Philomachus pugnax were infested, whereas 4 out of 9 (44.4%) Gallinago gallinago had chewing lice. A total of 20 lice species were found on birds. These were: Austromenopon sp., Austromenopon lutescens (Burmeister, 1838), A. durisetosum (Blagoveshtchensky, 1948), A. alpinum Timmermann, 1954, A. atrofulvum (Piaget, 1880), Actornithophilus totani (Schrank, 1803), A. pustulosus (Piaget, 1880), A. stictus (Kellogg and Chapman, 1899), A. umbrinus (Burmeister, 1838), Carduiceps scalaris (Piaget, 1880), C. zonarius (Nitzsch, 1866), C. meinertzhagani Timmermann, 1954, Quadraceps obscurus (Burmeister, 1838), Q. anagrapsus (Nitzsch, 1866), Lunaceps actophilus (Kellogg and Chapman, 1899), Lunaceps holophaeus (Burmeister, 1838), L. drosti Timmermann, 1954, L. incoensis (Kellogg and Chapman, 1899), Rhynonirmus scolopacis (Denny, 1842), and Saemundssonia lobaticeps (Giebel, 1874). All louse species documented here are first records for Turkey, increasing the number of bird louse species known from Turkey by about 40%. Austromenopon sp. found on Tringa glareola belongs to a species probably new to science.Öğe Chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Ischnocera, Amblycera) of starlings (Sturnus vulgaris, L.) in Turkey(2009) Dik B.; Uslu U.; Derinbay Ekici O.; Işik N.This study was carried out in order to detect chewing lice species occurring on starlings (Sturnus vulgaris, L). For this purpose, 27 starlings which were shot and sent in nylon bags to our laboratory by hunters were inspected for lice. Nine lice specimens were collected from the starlings and they were preserved in vials separately in 70% alcohol. They were cleared in 10% KOH for one or two days and mounted on slides in Canada balsam. They were examined by light microscope and identified to species. Four (14.81%) of 27 starlings were found to be infested with lice. Four species were identified as Myrsidea cucullaris (Nitzsch, 1818), Brueelia nebulosa (Burmeister, 1838), Sturnidoecus sturni (Schrank, 1766) and Brueelia sp. All of them have been reported for the first time from starlings in Turkey.Öğe Chewing-lice (Phtihiraptera: Amblycera, Ischnocera) occurring on birds in the Konya zoo.(2009) Dik B.; Uslu U.In this study, 25 birds belonging to 15 different species at the zoo in Konya were inspected for the presence of chewing-lice. Three Long-legged Buzzards (Buteo rufinus), one Imperial Eagle (Aquila heliaca) and one Marsh Harrier (Circus aeruginosus) were found to be infested by chewing-lice. Two hundred and eleven chewing-lice specimens were collected from the birds and seven species were identified. They were mounted on slides separately in Faure forte medium or Canada balsam after clearing in 10% KOH. Morphologic characteristics of the chewing-lice were examined and measured under the light microscope. Laemobothrion maximum (Scopoli, 1763), Craspedorrhynchus platystomus (Burmeister, 1838) and Degeeriella fulva (Giebel, 1874) were detected on Long-legged buzzards; Craspedorrhynchus fraterculus (Eichler & Zlotorzycka, 1975), Degeeriella aquilarum (Eichler, 1943) and Colpocephalum impressum (Rudow, 1866) on the Imperial Eagle; and Degeeriella fusca (Denny, 1842), on the Mars Harrier. C. fraterculus, D. aquilarum, C. impressum and D. fusca were found for the first time on these raptors in Turkey and information about these species were given in this paper.Öğe Cuclotogaster heterographus (Mallophaga: Lipeuridae) infestation on ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) in Konya [Konya'da halkali sülünlerde (Phasianus Colchicus) Cuclotogaster heterographus (Mallophaga: Lipeuridae) enfestasyonu.](2006) Dik B.; Uslu U.The aim of this study was to detect ectoparasites on ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) in Konya. On the Research and Experimental Farm of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Selcuk University, 55 ring-necked pheasants were observed to be infested with ectoparasites. Because of this, the pheasants were put into a large cartoon-box, the bottom of which was covered with a white paper and were treated with propoxur for a few minutes. The ectoparasites that had fallen on the paper were transferred to a tube containing 70% ethyl alcohol. After being cleared in lactophenol for a few days, they were mounted on slides in Faure-Forte medium. All of the ectoparasites were identified as the chewing lice (Mallophaga), Cuclotogaster heterographus. This is the first study that has recorded the presence of C. heterographus on ring-necked pheasants in Turkey.Öğe Culicoides species (Latreille, 1809) (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Hatay province(2010) Dik B.; Yaman M.; Uslu U.This study was carried out to determine of Culicoides species in Hatay province (Antakya, Reyhanli{dotless}, Hassa, Samanda? and Ki{dotless}ri{dotless}khan districts) between April 2005 and October 2006. The light traps were used for the collection of Culicoides samples. They were placed in or nearby sheep or cattle pens at the sunset and was kept for about two-three hours. A total of 520 Culicoides specimens were collected and 15 species were identified follow as: C. badooshensis Khalaf, C. cataneii Clastrier, C. circumscriptus Kieffer, C. dzhafarovi Remm, C. festivipennis Kieffer, C. gejgelensis Dzhafarov, C. imicola Kieffer, C. nubeculosus (Meigen), C. odiatus Austen, C. picturatus Kremer and Deduit, C. puncticollis (Becker), C. riethi Kieffer, C. sahariensis Kieffer, C. schultzei kompleks (Enderlein), C. shaklawensis Khalaf. While Culicoides circumscriptus and C. schultzei kompleks were dominant species, two specimens of C.f estivipennis, C. odiatus, C. picturatus, C. riethi and C. shaklawensis only one specimen of C. dzhafarovi were obtained.Öğe Ectoparasites of the ground squirrel (Citellus citellus (L.)) in Turkey.(2008) Uslu U.; Dik B.; Gökçen A.A total of 100 ground squirrels, Citellus (C.) citellus were trapped in rural regions of Konya in order to determine the presence of ectoparasites. Of these C. citellus examined, 16% (16/100) were infected with at least one ectoparasite species. Two types of ectoparasites were found including 10% fleas and 7% ticks. Only two flea species were found on C. citellus including Nosopsyllus fasciatus 10% (10/100) and Pulex irritans 1% (1/100). Also, only two species of ticks were found on the C. citellus examined. The rate of Haemaphysalis sp. nymphs was found to be 5% (5/100). Both Ixodes sp. adults and Ixodes sp. nymphs were found in 1% (1/100) of the C. citellus examined. The prevalence of ectoparasites showed no specific relationship with the gender and age of the host. Evidently, ground squirrels carry relatively few ectoparasite species in Turkey. This is the first report describing ectoparasites of C. citellus in Turkey.Öğe The first recording of Piagetiella titan (Menoponidae: Mallophaga) on a white pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus, Linneaus) in Turkey.(2006) Dik B.; Uslu U.During the examination of a wounded white pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) brought to the clinic of Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Selcuk University, lice infestation of the oral cavity was observed and 26 lice were collected. The lice were identified as Piagetiella titan during microscopical examination. No other report of this particular subject in Turkey was found. Therefore, this original observation is reported as the first case of P. titan infestation of a white pelican found in Turkey. This report is being included in the data of the parasitic fauna of Turkey.Öğe Haemodipsus leporis Blagoveshtchensky, 1966 (Phthiraptera: Anoplura: Polyplacidae) on a Hare (Lepus europaeus, L.): new record for Turkish Phthiraptera fauna(2012) Dik B.; Uslu U.This study was carried out to detect lice species found on hares (L. europaeus, L.) in the Konya province. Several lice individuals were collected on a hare and were kept in 70% alcohol. Then, they were cleaned in 10% KOH for 24 hours, washed in distilled water, stored in 70%, 80%, 90% and 96% alcohol for 24 hours for each step. They were mounted on the slides in Canada balsam and examined under a binocular light microscope. Two of the species were identified as Haemodipsus leporis Blagoveshtchensky, 1966, while the others were H. lyriocephalus (Burmeister, 1839). H. leporis was found on L. europaeus for the first time in Turkey, and it was also detected on this host species for the first time throughout the world. The morphological characteristics of this species are given in this paper.Öğe Haemodipsus species occurring on hares (Lepus eurapeus, L.): two new species in Turkish lice fauna.(2007) Dik B.; Uslu U.The aim of this paper was to give information about Haemodipsus species occurring on hares in the Konya province. Thirty three lice specimens collected from forty hares (Lepus europaeus, L.) were examined; two species, Haemodipsus lyriocephalus (Burmeister, 1839) and H. setoni (Ewing, 1924) were identified. Information about and discussion of the morphological characteristics of these species is given in this paper. This is the first time that Haemodipsus lyriocephalus and H. setoni have been reported in Turkey.Öğe Mallophaga (Insecta) species occurring on storks (Ciconia ciconia Linnaeus, 1758) [Beyaz leyleklerde (Ciconia ciconia Linnaeus, 1758) görülen Mallophaga (Insecta) türleri.](2006) Dik B.; Uslu U.This study was carried out in order to determine the presence of Mallophaga species on storks in Konya, Turkey. For this purpose, 15 storks were inspected for chewing lice in March 2003. The lice collected from the storks were preserved in a vial containing 70% alcohol. They were cleared in lactophenol for a few days and mounted on slides in the Faure-Forte medium. Thirteen storks were found to be infested with lice. In addition, one tick was found on a stork. A total of 1316 lice were collected from the storks. They were identified as Colpocephalum zebra, Neophilopterus incompletus, Ardeicola ciconiae and Ciconiphilus quadripustulatus. The tick was identified as a nymph of Hyalomma sp. This is the first time that C. zebra, N. incompletus, A. ciconiae and C. quadripustulatus have been reported from storks in Turkey.Öğe Myiasis in animals and humanbeings in Turkey(2012) Dik B.; Uslu U.; Işik N.This study was carried out to detect etiological agents of myiasis occurred in animals and humanbeings in Turkey, betweeen the years of 2006-2010. Twenty-eight myiasis cases were examined in this period. Twenty-two of them were traumatic myiasis while two anal myiasis, two aural myiasis, one nasomyiasis and one oral myiasis were detected. Twenty-three cases were detected in the animals, while five cases occurred in the humanbeings. Five species; Wohlfahrtia magnifica, Sarcophaga haemorrhoidalis, Lucilia sericata, Calliphora vicina and Eristalis tenax were identified as etiological agent of the myiasis. W. magnifica was detected as predominat species in the traumatic myiasis cases. L. sericata was found as secondary agent in the all cases. The other species were detected in only one each case.Öğe Prevalence of Coenurus cerebralis in sheep in Turkey(2007) Uslu U.; Guclu F.This study was carried out in order to determine the prevalence of Coenurus cerebralis in sheep slaughtered at Konet slaughterhouse between January 10, 2004, and December 31, 2005. Each month, 52 of a total of 624 sheep heads were examined for the presence of C. cerebralis. 102 of these heads were found to be infected with C. cerebralis. The prevalence of the infection was 36.71%, 24.73%, 12.66%, 8.60% and 1.50% in 6 months-1, 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 and 4-and above-year old sheep, respectively. The prevalence of the infection was 18.57% in rams and 15.21% in ewes. 75 of C. cerebralis cysts were found to be located in the left hemisphere, while 66 were located in the right hemisphere. Furthermore, 31.20% of the cysts were found at the parieto-occipital region, 29.08% at the temporal region, 29.79% at the frontal region, and 9.93% were found in the cerebellum. The highest (28.20%) prevalence of infection was determined during the winter season and the lowest (2.56%) during the summer season.Öğe Prevalence of Haemodipsus (Anoplura: Polyplacidae) species found on hares (Lepus europaeus L.) in Konya Province, Turkey.(2008) Dik B.; Uslu U.This study was carried out in order to determine the prevalence of lice on hares (Lepus europaeus L.) in the Konya province of Turkey from October 2003 to January 2007. During this period, 54 hares were examined for lice, 5 of them (11%) were found to be infested with lice and a total of 41 lice specimens were collected from the infested hares. Two species; Haemodipsus lyriocephalus (Burmeister, 1839) and H. setoni Ewing, 1924 were identified and H. lyriocephalus was more abundant than H. setoni.Öğe Türkiye'de bir puhu'da (Bubo bubo interpositus) Strigiphilus strigis (Mallophaga: Philopteridae).(2007) Dik B.; Uslu U.In this study, a Eurasian eagle owl (Bubo b. interpositus) was brought to the laboratory of Parasitology Department and was inspected for ectoparasites. Five Mallophaga specimens were collected from the eagle owl and they were mounted on slides in Faure forte medium after being cleared in 10% KOH. Morphologic characteristics of the lice were inspected and measured under the light microscope. All of the specimens were identified as Strigiphilus strigis (Pontoppidan 1763). This paper presents the first detection of S. strigis in Turkey.Öğe Türkiye’de, Beyaz Pelikanlarda (Pelecanus onocrotalus, Linneaus) Görülen Mallophaga Türleri(2008) Dik B.; Uslu U.This study was carried out on six white pelicans (Pelecanus onocrotalus) between the years 2002-2006. Oral cavities of the pelicans were examined macroscopically. The lice found in the oral cavities were collected by forceps and were preserved in tubes containing 70% alcohol. Also, each pelican was put in a big carton-box, the bottom of which was covered with a white paper and the pelicans were treated with propoxur for a few minutes. The lice that fell on to the paper were collected in a Petri dish and later on they were put in vials containing 70% alcohol. Five (83.3%) out of the six pelicans under examination were found to be infested with at least one lice species. From the oral cavities and bodies of the pelicans 346 lice were collected and three species namely: Piagetiella titan (Piaget, 1880), Pectinopygus forficulatus (Nitzsch, 1866) and Colpocephalum eucarenum (Burmeister, 1838) were identified as three Mallophaga species. Pectinopygus forficulatus and Colpocephalum eucarenum were recorded for the first time from the white pelicans in Turkey.
