A Case of Chaunocephalosis by Chaunocephalus ferox (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) in an Oriental White Stork, Ciconia boyciana, in Korea
We intended to describe a case of chaunocephalosis and morphological characteristics of its causative agent, Chaunocephalus ferox, recovered from an oriental white stork, Ciconia boyciana, in the Republic of Korea. An oriental white stork was referred to the Wildlife Center of Chungbuk in Korea in February 2014 for severe depression with cachexia and it died the next day. At necropsy, the stoma...
متن کاملStructure and polymorphisms of the major histocompatibility complex in the Oriental stork, Ciconia boyciana
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is highly polymorphic and plays a central role in the vertebrate immune system. Despite its functional consistency, the MHC genomic structure differs substantially among organisms. In birds, the MHCs of Galliformes and the Japanese crested ibis (Pelecaniformes) are well-characterized, but information about other avian MHCs remains scarce. The Oriental ...
متن کاملPolymelia and polydactyly in White Stork (Ciconia ciconia)
We report polymelia and polydactyly in an immature White Stork (Ciconia ciconia). Polymelia and polydactyly are unusual leg malformations and have been rarely recorded in birds. To our knowledge there is no study indicating the two cases observed in the same bird. We observed a White Stork which has two pairs of fused legs, with a total of nine and 10 toes on left and right fused legs respectiv...
متن کاملHematologic and serum biochemical reference intervals of the Oriental white stork (Ciconia boyciana) and the application of an automatic hematologic analyzer
This study was conducted to establish accurate baseline values of clinical laboratory data with regard to age-related changes in the Oriental white stork (Ciconia boyciana). In addition, the availability of an automated hematological cell counter was evaluated. A total of 94 clinically normal storks, including 64 young storks (＜1 year old; 30 male and 34 female) and 30 adults (＞ 1 year old; 17 ...
متن کاملPatterns of change in the population and spatial distribution of oriental white storks (Ciconia boyciana) wintering in Poyang Lake
Using total counts in simultaneous annual surveys, we monitored the population size and spatial distribution of oriental white storks (Ciconia boyciana) wintering in Poyang Lake between 1998 and 2011. Results showed that Poyang Lake wetland is an important wintering ground for oriental white storks, with an annual average population number of 2 305±326. The population sizes in 2004, 2005, 2010,...
