This study was carried out to detect chewing-lice found on some birds in Turkey.
For this aim, a Eurasian collared dove (Streptopelia decaocto), a budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus) and a marbled duck (Marmaronetta angustirostris) were examined for the louse.
Columbicola bacillus (Giebel, 1866) was found on a Eurasian collared dove (Streptopelia decaocto), Afrimenopon waar (Eichler, 1947) on a budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus) and Anatoecus icterodes (Nitzsch, 1818) on a marbled duck (Marmaronetta angustirostris).
All three louse species were recorded for the first time in Turkey. Anatoecus icterodes was reported for the first time from marbled duck in the worldwide. Therefore, marbled duck is a new host for Anatoecus icterodes.
开展本研究以检测在土耳其一些鸟类身上发现的咀嚼虱。
为此,对一只欧亚领鸽(灰斑鸠)、一只虎皮鹦鹉和一只斑背潜鸭进行了虱类检查。
在一只欧亚领鸽(灰斑鸠)身上发现了鸽嗜杆菌(吉布尔,1866年),在一只虎皮鹦鹉身上发现了瓦氏非洲短角羽虱(艾希勒,1947年),在一只斑背潜鸭身上发现了黄斑鸭虱(尼茨施,1818年)。
这三种虱类均为首次在土耳其被记录。黄斑鸭虱在全球范围内首次从斑背潜鸭身上被报道。因此,斑背潜鸭是黄斑鸭虱的新宿主。
