Treatment Of Experimental Bovine Coccidiosis With Nitrofurazone And Sulfamethazine, Donald L. Ferguson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Coccidiosis in cattle is caused by microscopic, one-celled parasites known as coccidia (genus Eimeria). It is a common disease that weakens or kills calves or older cattle, with greater loses generally occurring in young animals. Eleven species have been reported in cattle in this country (1). At least two species, Eimeria bovis and E. zurnii, are known to be pathogenic to cattle (9).

A Study Of The Parasites From Rainbow Trout Of A Commercial Fish Farm In Cache Valley, Utah, Kenneth L. Jones

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

During the biennial period July 1, 1956 to June 30, 1958 the 12 state fish hatcheries in Utah produced and stocked in the waters of the state 20,092,902 fish weighing a total of 1,528,787 pounds, at a cost varying between 69 and 75 cents per pound. The cost figure depends upon what expenditures are included (Don Andriano, 1960). A substantial mortality occurs at the fish hatcheries in the state of Utah. The determination of the cause of any given loss is complicated by a number of factors. This is especially true of losses which may be due secondarily to parasites …

Malaysian Parasites Xxxv-Xlix, W. W. Macdonald

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

This is the third Study of the series from this Institute on the external and internal parasites and the biting insects of the Malaysian region. The earlier two volumes were planned and edited by Dr. J.R. Audy, and on his departure from Malaya in the middle of 1959 Mr. W. W. Macdonald continued the work which had been begun and collated and edited the papers in this present Study.

In the two previous volumes (Study No. 26, 1954 and No. 28, 1957) the emphasis was on the taxonomy of Trombiculid mites. In the present volume the emphasis has changed, and …

Observations On The Biology Of Schistocerca Venusta, David Allyn King

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Statement Qf the problem. The green valley grasshopper, Schistoceroa venusta Scudder, is one of the most common grasshoppers to be found in the San Joaquin Valley and environs. Despite the fact that the insect is commonplace, very little work has been done on its biology. It was the purpose of this study, therefore, to learn by field and laboratory observations of the life cycle and habits of Schistoceroa venusta.

Opecoelid Trematodes From California Including A New Species, Opecoelus Nobelei, Amal Chandra Banerjee

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The aim of this investigation was to study some of the digenetic trematodes of marine fishes from Monterey Bay, with special reference to the genus Opecoelus family Opecoelidae Ozaki 1925. Extensive work on this family has been done by Dr. D. Yaiuaguti and his colleagues in Japan. After the Allan Hancock Pacific expeditions to the Galapagos Islands in 1934. Dr. H. W. Menter described a few new species from the Galapagos and some Lexicon Islands in 1940. The same author reported a new species from La Jolla, California in 1951; but until now, no further observations have been made on …

Some Hemiurid Trematodes Of Marine Fishes Of California, Fuad Michael Nahhas

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The following seven species of hemiurid trematodes, some with new host records, are reported in this study: Dissosaccus laevis, Genolinea laticauda, Lecithaster salmonis, Parahemiurus merus, Sterrhurus exodicus, Sterrhurus monticelli and Tubulovesicula lindbergi. Dissosaocus laeyis and Sterrhurus monticelli are reported for the first time from the West Coast of North America.

Genolinea oncorhynohi Adams and Margolis 1958 is placed in synonymy with Genolinea laticauda Manter 1925. Keys for Genolinea and Tubulovesicula species, modified from Manter (1954) are included. Two tables, one summarizing the hemiurids reported from the West Coast of North America, the other a summary of hemiurids from Monterey Bay, …

The Effect Of Temperature On The Growth Rates Of Several California Frogs, Donald Avila Villeneuve

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

To date the majority of the work on the ecological significance of embryonic temperature relationships has been with Eastern Frongs. The writer is aware of only two papers describing work of this nature with California frogs: Schechtmann and Oleson (1941) working with temperature tolerance in embryos of Hyla regilla, and the work of Zweifel (1955) on the Rana boylei species group.

For this reason it seemed desireable to study the effect of temperature on the growth rates of some frogs native to California and, since work of this nature has been done with the eastern Rana catesbeiana by Moore (1942b), …

Behavior Of The Red-Footed Booby (Sulasula) In British Honduras, Jared Verner

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

During three months of the breeding season in a colony of 3500 Red-footed Boobies (Sula sula) on 45½-acre Half Moon Caye, fifty miles east of Belize, British Honduras, that species’ little-known breeding activities were investigated. Feeding flights of boobies began leaving the caye before daylight and returned in the evening until after dark. Wind direction and velocity notably affected the mode of the birds’ departure but little affected their direction. Average flight-unit size was 2.41 birds. Contrary to published accounts, the boobies were able to take flight from the ground.

Embryological Development Of Cucumaria Curata, Edmund Hobart Smith

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Almost no work has been done on the brooding habits of Cucumaria curata Cowles 1902 from the Pacific Coast of North America. Most of the embryological investigations of holothurians on this coast have been with species having free swimming larval forms (Johnson and Johnson, 1950). Since the majority Holothurians have planktonic larvae, a study of the direct development found in C. curate might prove beneficial in comparing the ecological distribution of this species with those having planktonic larvae. The brooding type of development is found in polar species, but seldom found in warmer waters. This may have some direct effect …

Habitat Of Red-Backed Vole, Harvey L. Gunderson

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

These data are a part of a study of small mammal populations at Cedar Creek Forest, Anoka County, Minnesota. The live-trapping area of 5.0 acres, with 81 traps spaced 52 feet apart, was in a tamarack-white cedar bog. The study extended over a period of 7 years (1949-1955). Trapping periods of five days (four nights) extended from early May to the first part of October. In all, there were 14,580 trap-nights. A total of 428 voles were marked and weighed; data on 25 dead unmarked individuals are also included.

A frequency index was calculated for each station. This index was …
