Abstract: A comprehensive and up to date summary of the literature on the helminth parasites of lizards and amphisbaenians from South America is herein presented. One-hundred eighteen lizard species from twelve countries were reported in the literature harboring a total of 155 helminth species, being none acanthocephalans, 15 cestodes, 20 trematodes and 111 nematodes. Of these, one record was from Chile and French Guiana, three from Colombia, three from Uruguay, eight from Bolivia, nine from Surinam, 13 from Paraguay, 12 from Venezuela, 27 from Ecuador, 17 from Argentina, 39 from Peru and 103 from Brazil. The present list provides host, geographical distribution (with the respective biome, when possible), site of infection and references from the parasites. A systematic parasite-host list is also provided. Key words: Cestoda, Nematoda, Trematoda, Squamata, neotropical. INTRODUCTION The present checklist summarizes the diversity of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians Parasitological studies on helminths that of South America, providing a host-parasite list infect squamates (particularly lizards) in South with localities and biomes. America had recent increased in the past few years, with many new records of hosts and/or STUDIED REGIONS localities and description of several new species (1-3).

KUZNETSOV; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The review provides data on species composition of nematodes in 50 species of birds from Armenia (South of Lesser Caucasus). Most of the studied birds belong to Passeriformes and Charadriiformes orders. One of the studied species of birds (Larus armenicus) is an endemic. The taxonomy and host-specificity of nematodes reported in original papers are discussed with a regard to current knowledge about this point. In total, 52 nematode species parasitizing birds in Armenia are reported. Most of the reported species of nematodes are quite common in birds outside of Armenia. One species (Desmidocercella incognita from great cormorant) was first identified in Armenia.

  • Evaluation of a Density Index for Territorial Male Hazel Grouse Bonasa Bonasia in Spring and Autumn
    Ornis Fennica 68 :57-65. 1991 Evaluation of a density index for territorial male Hazel Grouse Bonasa bonasia in spring and autumn Jon E. Swenson Swenson, J. E., Department of Zoology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2E9, Canada, and Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, Grimsö Wildlife Research Station, S-730 91 Riddarhyttan, Sweden (correspondence to Swedish address) . Received 14 September 1990, accepted 10 January 1991 A density index for territorial male Hazel Grouse Bonasa bonasia in spring and au- tumn is presented and evaluated. One whistles with a hunter's whistle every 30 seconds for 6 minutes from census points located at 150-m intervals within the area to be censused, and responding Hazel Grouse are counted. Counts were conducted throughout days with little or no wind. The number of counted males was significantly and linearly correlated with the number of known territorial males on an intensive study area. There, 82% of the territorial males responded and were counted. Response rate appeared to be independent of density, based on counts in areas with a 20-fold variation in densities. When censuses were repeated, both results were similar. Within the conditions of these counts, no effects of weather or date were found. However, Hazel Grouse responded less at midday. Using this method, one can count Hazel Grouse at a rate of about 5 minutes per ha along transects and 5-9 minutes per ha on blocks of habitat, depending on plot size. I recommend that censuses be conducted during 4-5 weeks prior to laying in spring and during 4-5 weeks after brood dissolution in autumn .

  • Observation on a Sooty Grouse Population at Sage Hen Creek
    THE CONDOR--- VOLUME 58 SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER, 1956 NUMBER 5 OBSERVATIONS ON A SOOTY GROUSE POPULATION AT SAGE HEN CREEK, CALIFORNIA By ROBERT S. HOFFMANN In recent years there has been considerable interest in two separate aspects of the biology of Blue Grouse (Dendragapus) . The first of these is the controversy concerning their taxonomy. The genus is widely distributed in the coniferous forests of the western states and consists of two groups of races recognized by some as separate species: the fuliginosus group, or Sooty Grouse, along the Pacific coast, and the obscures group, or Dusky Grouse, in the Great Basin and Rocky Mountain areas. Originally these two groups were placed under the name Dendragapus obscurus on the basis of supposed intergradation (Bendire, 1892:41,44, SO). The work of Brooks (1912,1926,1929) and Swarth (1922, 1926), however, led to their separation in the fourth edition of the A.O.U. Check-list (1931) into coastal and interior species. This split stood until the publication of the 19th Supplement to the A.O.U. Check-list (1944) when, following Peters (1934), D. fuliginosus and its subspecieswere replaced under D. obscurus. Al- though at that time some doubt was still expressedabout the correctnessof this merger (Grinnell and Miller, 1944: 113), intergradation in northern Washington and southern British Columbia between the races fuliginosus and pallidus has now been reported by several authors (Munro and Cowan, 1947:89; Carl, Guiguet, and Hardy, 1952:86; Jewett, Taylor, Shaw, and Aldrich, 1953 : 200). The taxonomy of these grouse must rest upon the fact of intergradation between the two groups of races.

Unfortunately, there Grouse (Dendragapus obscurus) and the Sooty Grouse has been little effort to evaluate the relationship between (Dendragapus fuliginosus). This split is actually a reversion forest management practices and Sooty Grouse populations. to the previous situation during the early 1900s when the In contrast to Sooty Grouse, Dusky Grouse tend to be adapted Dusky and Sooty Grouse were considered distinct. to relatively open habitats in forest openings or close to forest edges.

Abstract This thesis presents data on factors determining the occurrence and dynamics of hazel grouse populations at several spatial scales in five landscapes with different management regimes. In a forested area with a low degree of habitat variation the relationship between occurrence of hazel grouse and type of habitat was best explained at scales equal or larger than the home range, compared to smaller spatial scales. At this spatial scale the hazel grouse preferred spruce stands 20-69 years old and those older than 90 years, having 5-40% deciduous trees. More specifically the presence of hazel grouse in a habitat patch was positively influenced by a high amcunt of vertical ground cover, rich field layer vegetation and the presence of alder. At the landscape scale the occurrence of hazel grouse in habitat patches in intensively managed landscapes was negatively affected by increasing distance between suitable habitats both in an agriculture-dominated landscape and in a forest-dominated landscape. The threshold distances for hazel grouse movements were about 200 m in the agricultural landscape and about 10 times longer in the forested landscape, suggesting a strong effect of different types of matrix.

The examined nematodes are predominantly parasites of fishes. Their analyses provided well-supported trees allowing the study of phylogenetic relationships among some spirurine nematodes. The present results support the placement of Cucullanidae at the base of the suborder Spirurina and, based on the position of the genus Philonema (subfamily Philoneminae) forming a sister group to Skrjabillanidae (thus Philoneminae should be elevated to Philonemidae), the paraphyly of the Philometridae. Comparison of a large number of sequences of representatives of the latter family supports the paraphyly of the genera Philometra, Philometroides and Dentiphilometra. The validity of the newly included genera Afrophilometra and Carangi- nema is not supported. These results indicate geographical isolation has not been the cause of speciation in this parasite group and no coevolution with fish hosts is apparent. On the contrary, the group of South-American species ofAlinema , Nilonema and Rumai is placed in an independent branch, thus markedly separated from other family members.
