Abstract

ABSTRACT: From November 2016 to October 2020, 14 adult southern short-tailed shrews, Blarina carolinensis (Bachman), were collected from Arkansas (n = 10) and Oklahoma (n = 4) and examined for parasites. All were infected and/or infested with various endo- and ectoparasites, including 3 trematodes (Brachylaima thompsoni, Ectosiphonus rhomboideus, Panopistus pricei), a cestode (Cryptocotylepis anthocephalus), 2 nematodes (Longistriata caudabullata and larval Porrocaecum sp.), an acanthocephalan cystacanth (Centrorhynchus conspectus), 3 mites (Olistrophorus blarina, Echinonyssus blarinae, and Prowichmannia cf. spinifera), and a tick (Ixodes scapularis). In addition, an epifaunistic beetle (Leptinus americanus) was found on 1 of the B. carolinensis collected. We document a new host and 9 new distributional records, and the first records of helminth parasites from any shrew from Arkansas or Oklahoma.

美国阿肯色和俄克拉何马州南方短尾鼩寄生虫(哺乳纲:细尾鼩科)

摘要：2016年11月至2020年10月，从阿肯色州（n=10）和俄克拉荷马州（n=4）采集了14只成年南部短尾鼩，并对其进行了寄生虫检查。所有人都感染和/或感染了各种内寄生虫和外寄生虫，包括3种吸虫（Brachylaima thompsoni、Ectosiphonus rhomboideus、Panopistus pricei）、一种cestud（Cryptocotylepis anthocephalus）、2种线虫（Longifrata caudbullata和幼虫Porocaecum sp.）、，3只螨（Olistroporus blarina、Echinonyssus blarinae和Prowichmannia cf.spinifera）和一只蜱（肩胛硬蜱）。此外，在采集到的卡罗莱纳B.carolinensis的1个标本上还发现了一种兽外甲虫（Leptinus americanus）。我们记录了一个新的宿主和9个新的分布记录，以及来自阿肯色州或俄克拉荷马州的任何鼩的蠕虫寄生虫的第一个记录。

期刊介绍： Comparative Parasitology (continuing the Journal of the Helminthological Society of Washington in its 67th volume) focuses on parasitological research of a comparative nature, emphasizing taxonomy, systematics, ecology, biogeography, evolution, faunal survey, and biological inventory within a morphological and/or molecular context. The scope of Comparative Parasitology extends to all parasitic faunas, including helminths, protistans and arthropods.
