The Seasonal Cycle Of Abundance Of Echinococcus Multilocularis In Naturally Infected Arctic Foxes, Francis H. Fay, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

In some preliminary work on the ecology of Echinococcus multilocularis (Rudolphi, 1801) on St. Lawrence Island, Alaska, Rausch and Schiller (1956. Parasitology, 46 (3 & 4): 395-419) noted that the percentage of arctic foxes, Alopex lagopus Linnaeus, harboring the adult cestodes seemed to vary annually in direct relation to the population density of tundra voles, Microtus oeconomus innuitus Merriam, the principal intermediate host. With the primary objective of examining this relationship in greater detail, an intensive, long-term ecologic investigation was begun on this island in 1955. Some of the results in the first 7 years are reported here.

Marketing And Other Factors Affecting The Cattle Feeding Enterprise In Eastern South Dakota, Gerald Marousek

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

The marketing aspects of the cattle feeding operation are vitally important to its financial success. Decisions concerning transportation rates, grade specifications, market information, and many others cannot be made or put into effect by individual action. Often financial, legislative, and legal considerations are involved. In order to gain knowledge concerning the marketing aspects of cattle feeding in South Dakota, the cooperation of established feeders was sought. Cooperators supplied information on present and expected future operations, both individual and for the geographic area over which they had knowledge.

Mites On Kangaroo Rats At The Nevada Test Site, Morris A. Goates

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

A systematic study of parasitic mites on kangaroo rats of two species at the Nevada Test Site was conducted from August 1959 to December 1961. The intent was to determine the kinds, numbers, seasonal occurrences and ecological relationships of mites in nuclear disturbed and contiguous undisturbed areas. A total of 1,256 rats from nine plant communities was examined.

The 6,208 mites collected represented 16 species including four undescribed. Fourteen were found on both kinds of rats. Considerably more rats were infested with chiggers than with mesostigmatids. Each species of mite occurred alone on its host at least 20% of the …
