Thin blood smears were collected from 126 mammals representing four genera of marsupials and six genera of murid rodents. A species of Hepatozoon was discovered in the New Guinea spiny bandicoot (Echymipera kalubu), trypanosome infections were found in three genera of rodent hosts and the prevalence of a rickettsial parasite of the genus Grahamella was recorded in rodents from the genera Rattus and Melomys. Dried blood samples also were taken and screened serologically for antibodies to arenavirus infection but with negative results.
从代表有袋类四个属和鼠科啮齿动物六个属的126只哺乳动物身上采集了薄血涂片。在新几内亚刺袋狸(Echymipera kalubu)中发现了一种肝簇虫属物种,在三个属的啮齿动物宿主中发现了锥虫感染,并且在大鼠属和长吻袋貂属的啮齿动物中记录了格雷厄姆氏体属立克次体寄生虫的流行情况。还采集了干血样本,并进行血清学筛查以检测抗沙粒病毒感染的抗体,但结果为阴性。
