Untersuchungen über die Endoparasiten des Feldhasen (Lepus europaeus) und Versuche zu ihrer Bekämpfung

Endoparasites in European hares (Lepus europaeus) under gamekeeping conditions in the Czech Republic

“…Studies from surrounding European countries showed that infection varies from 75.8 % to 96.8 % (Haupt & Hartung, 1976;Kutzer & Frey, 1976;Forstner & Ilg, 1982;Allgöwer, 1992). A lower prevalence from Finland was reported by Soveri and Valtonen (1983) (Crofton, 1946).…”

“…Coccidia are among the most potent pathogenic parasites of hares, and in combination with lung and digestive tract nematodes, they have become a major regulatory factor of the hare population (Chroust, 1984). In previous studies, the prevalence rates of coccidial infections in hares in the Czech Republic were very high, ranging between 92.5 % and 100 % (Ryšavý, 1954;Chroust, 1979Chroust, , 1984Jirouš, 1979;Pakandl, 1990) and likewise in hares from surrounding countries such as Germany, Austria or Poland: between 63.3 % and 100 % (Kutzer & Frey, 1976;Haupt & Hartung, 1976;Forstner & Ilg, 1982;Algöwer, 1992;Böckeler et al, 1994;Pilarczyk et al, 2008). During coprological examination, oocysts of the following species were found: Eimeria coquelinae, E. cabareti, E. leporis, E. babatica, E. europea, E. pierrecouderti, E. macrosculpta, E. orbiculata and E. stefanski.…”

“…At their suggestion, we investigated current parasitary conditions of these animals. Many studies of the endoparasites of European hares were conducted in the latter half of the twentieth century (Haupt & Hartung, 1976;Kutzer & Frey, 1976;Nickel & Gottwald, 1979;Forstner & Ilg, 1982;Soveri & Valtonen, 1983;Pakandl, 1990;Allgöwer, 1992;Böckeler et al, 1994). Recently, studies have become rarer i.e., from France by Bordes et al (2007), from Poland by Pilarczyk et al (2008) and from Slovakia by Dubinský et al (2010).…”

Helminth Communities of an Introduced Hare (Lepus granatensis) and a Native Hare (Lepus europaeus) in Southern France

“…Previously, N. zembrae had only been recorded in the Iberian Peninsula and Zembra Island, where it occurs only in rabbits and in Iberian hares (Moreno Montanez et al, 1979;Martinez-Gomez et al, 1987;Blasco et al, 1996;Molina i Figueras, 1998). Many studies have been conducted on the helminth fauna of L. europaeus in other countries outside of the Iberian Peninsula, and there have been no reports of N. zembrae from this species (Sharpilo, 1975;Kutzer and Frey, 1976;Sugar et al, 1978;Forstner and Ilg, 1982;Soveri and Valtonen, 1983;Boag, 1987;Canestri-Trotti et al, 1988;Allgoewer, 1992;Poglayen et al, 1994;Molina i Figueras, 1998;Shimalov and Shimalov, 2001). This nematode species also has not been recorded from European hares in northern Spain, where Iberian hares are absent (Molina i Figueras, 1998).…”

Parásitos de la liebre (Lepus europaeus Pallas, 1778): estudio en dos zonas geográficas de Chile

“…La incidencia reportada en otros estudios va desde un 66% a 94% 18,26,27 . No se estableció ninguna relación significativa entre la presencia de los parásitos gastrointestinales con el sexo y edad de las liebres.…”
