Aves silvestres infestadas por Phthiraptera (Insecta) na Zona da Mata Norte de Pernambuco, Brasil

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Wild birds infested by Phthiraptera (Insecta) in Pernambuco North Zona da Mata. Studies were carried out on lhe relationship between Phthiraptera and wild birds captured by mist nets at the Engenho Independência, at Vicência's county. Three families of Phthiraptera were identified. The Menoponidae were the one wilh lhe highest nurnber of hosts. They were specially fOWld in lhe dorsal face of the remiges. The Trochiloecetidae were only seen infesling the neck ofbirds belonging to the hummingbirds. The… Show more

“…Saxena et al (2007) reported a mean intensity of 17.75, similar to infestation parameters in the present study. Intensity of infestation reported in the present study is higher than in either Roda and Isidro Farias (1999) or Najer et al (2014), perhaps because numbers of host specimens examined in their studies are very small, but differences in efficiency of collecting methods may have also contributed to the differences found in infestation intensity.…”

“…Hill and Tuff (1978) In Brazil, P. eurysema was initally described by Guimarães (1936) parasitizing C. minuta in Mato Grosso. Oniki (1999) reported P. eurysema and C. passerinae in C. talpacoti in the same state, and Roda and Farias (1999) reported C. passerinae from C. talpacoti and C. minuta in Pernambuco. In Rio de Janeiro, Valim et al (2004) found C. passerinae, P. eurysema and H. passerinae parasitizing C. talpacoti with prevalences of 50%, 50% and 17% respectively.…”

“…Recentemente, P. eurysema e Columbicola passerinae foram relatados em Columbina talpacoti neste mesmo estado (Oniki, 1999). Roda & Farias (1999) Os resultados do presente inquérito confirmam as informações sobre as espécies de Phthiraptera encontradas sobre a Columbina talpacoti (Price et al, 2003), com exceção de Hohorstiella passerinae que é pela primeira vez reportada sobre esta espécie de columbídeo. Pode-se afirmar ser um novo hospedeiro para este menoponídeo, pelo fato das três espécies de malófagos encontrados, segundo a literatura, compartilharem das mesmas espécies de hospedeiros do gênero Columbina: C. passerina, C. picui e C. talpacoti.…”
