    (TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2015) Dik, Bilal; Per, Esra; Yavuz, Kiraz Erciyas; Yamac, Elif
    This study was carried out between 2011 and 2014 to detect chewing louse species found on birds in Turkey. For this purpose, 246 birds were examined for lice. Thirty-three birds (13.4%) were found to be infested by 25 louse species; 17 Ischnoceran species belonging to 15 genera and 8 Amblyceran species belonging to 5 genera were recorded in this study. In this study, usually 1 or 2 louse species were detected on a single bird, and in only 2 cases, 3 louse species were found on the same bird. Rhynonirmus helvolus (Burmeister, 1838) and Saemundssonia sp. (nymph: N) from the Eurasian Woodcock (Scolopax rusticola), Penenirmus silvicultrix (Mey, 1982) from the Common Redstart (Phoenicurus phoenicurus), Penenirmus longuliceps (Blagovestchensky, 1940) from the Cetti's Warbler (Cettia cetti), Brueelia iliaci (Denny, 1842) from the Redwing (Turdus iliacus), Penenirmus pikulai (Balat, 1981) from the Barred Warbler (Sylvia nisoria), Cuculoecus latifrons (Denny, 1842) from the Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus), and Brueelia sp. (N) and Penenirmus sp. (N) from the Black-headed Bunting (Emberiza melanocephala) were reported for the first time in Turkey. In addition, Cuclotogaster heterographus (Nitzsch [In Giebel], 1866) was collected from a turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) for the first time anywhere in the world.

    Studies on chewing lice (phthiraptera: amblycera, ischnocera) species from domestic and wild birds in Turkey
    (KAFKAS UNIV, VETERINER FAKULTESI DERGISI, 2013) Dik, Bilal; Yamac, Elif; Uslu, Ugur
    This study was performed to detect chewing lice species occurring on domestic and wild birds in Turkey between October 2010 and May 2012. For this aim, the birds were brought to Veterinary Faculty of Selcuk University and Biology Department of Science Faculty of Anadolu University were examined for their lice. The louse specimens collected from the birds were preserved in eppendorf tubes contains ethyl alcohol 70%. They were cleared in Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) 10% for a day, washed within distilled water for a day and transferred to alcohol 70%, 80%, 90% and 99% at consecutive days. Then, they were mounted on the slides in Canada balsam and identified to species. Among studied 26 bird species in 24 genera and 17 families belonging to 9 orders, seventeen species (65.38%) were found to be infested with lice and no louse specimen was found in 9 bird species (34.62%). The forty-one specimens (48.23%) of examined 85 birds were found to be infested with the lice, and 32 lice species were detected. Besides, the genera Falcolipeurus, Coloceras and Struthiolipeurus, the species; Brueelia apiastri (Denny, 1842); Brueelia munda (Nitzsch, 1866); Coloceras piageti (Johnston ve Harrison, 1912); Coloceras israelensis (Tendeiro, 1974); Degeeriella nisus (Giebel, 1866); Degeeriella phylctopygus (Nitzsch, 1861); Degeeriella rufa (Burmeister, 1838); Falcolipeurus quadripustulatus (Burmeister, 1838); Laemobothrion vulturis (Fabricius, J.C., 1775); Menacanthus orioli (Blagovestchensky, 1951); Philopterus fringillae (Scopoli, 1772); Struthiolipeurus struthionis (Gervais, 1844) were recorded for the first time from the birds in Turkey. Columbicola columbae was found on the Long-eared Owl as a first record.
