Fifteen Indian house crows (Corvus splendens) were obtained from a live-trap in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Two died soon after arrival. The remainder were examined clinically prior to euthanasia. All birds were examined post-mortem and a limited number of laboratory investigations was performed. None of the birds showed significant clinical signs or pathological lesions. Lice were found on one. Only Escherichia coli and Proteus spp. were isolated from the rectum. Coccidia were detected in three birds and cestodes in one. Haematological values were low. No blood parasites were seen. More extensive studies are warranted on the possible role of this species in the dissemination of pathogens.
从坦桑尼亚达累斯萨拉姆的一个活捉陷阱中捕获了15只印度家鸦（小嘴乌鸦）。其中两只在抵达后不久死亡。其余的在安乐死之前进行了临床检查。所有鸟类均进行了尸检，并进行了有限的实验室检查。没有一只鸟表现出明显的临床症状或病理损伤。在一只鸟身上发现了虱子。仅从直肠中分离出大肠杆菌和变形杆菌属。在三只鸟中检测到球虫，一只鸟中检测到绦虫。血液学值较低。未发现血液寄生虫。有必要对该物种在病原体传播中的可能作用进行更广泛的研究。
