Abstract
ABSTRACT Examination of museum collections of cyclophyllidean cestodes (families Paruterinidae and Davaineidae) from the Australian bustard, Ardeotis australis (Gray) (Aves: Gruiformes), revealed the presence of five species not previously reported from Australia: Ascometra vestita Cholodkovsky, 1912, Idiogenes kolbei Ortlepp, 1938, I. kori Ortlepp, 1938, I. nana Fuhrmann, 1925 and I. otidis Krabbe, 1868. All are known from a variety of genera and species of bustards from Africa and Eurasia. Minor differences were noted in the morphology of I. kori and I. nana from published descriptions, but these differences may be due to intraspecific variation.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1880, the Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia is a multidisciplinary journal that aims to publish high quality, peer-reviewed papers of particular relevance to Australasia.
There is a particular focus on natural history topics such as: botany, zoology, geology, geomorphology, palaeontology, meteorology, geophysics, biophysics, soil science and environmental science, and environmental health. However, the journal is not restricted to these fields, with papers concerning epidemiology, ethnology, anthropology, linguistics, and the history of science and exploration also welcomed.
Submissions are welcome from all authors, and membership of the Royal Society of South Australia is not required.
The following types of manuscripts are welcome: Reviews, Original Research Papers, History of Science and Exploration, Brief Communications, Obituaries.
