Incidence of Botfly Infestation in the Ornate Box Turtle (Terrapene ornata)
Infestation of Ornate Box Turtles (Terrapene ornata) by sarcophagid botflies was studied over 38 yrs in western Nebraska. At least 2% of captured individuals were infected, primarily in late spring following warm temperatures in the previous September. Botflies may be a significant cause of mortality in box turtles in some years.
期刊介绍:
Chelonian Conservation and Biology is a biannual peer-reviewed journal of cosmopolitan and broad-based coverage of all aspects of conservation and biology of all chelonians, including freshwater turtles, marine turtles, and tortoises. Manuscripts may cover any aspects of turtle and tortoise research, with a preference for conservation or biology. Manuscripts dealing with conservation biology, systematic relationships, chelonian diversity, geographic distribution, natural history, ecology, reproduction, morphology and natural variation, population status, husbandry, community conservation initiatives, and human exploitation or conservation management issues are of special interest.
