Third-stage larvae of Anisakis simplex (Rudolphi, 1809) in the Great Cormorant [Phalacrocorax carbo sinensins (Blumenbach, 1798)] from the Vistula Lagoon, Poland
Five out of 28 Great Cormorants collected in spring 2005 from the Vistula Lagoon were found to contain a total of 19 (16 in the stomach and 3 in the intestine) stage III larvae of Anisakis simplex. Spring is the season when nematode-infected herring from the western Baltic, Danish straits, and the North Sea arrive in the Vistula Lagoon and transmit the infection to cormorants feeding on them. T...
متن کاملIn-air hearing of the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo)
Many aquatic birds use sounds extensively for in-air communication. Regardless of this, we know very little about their hearing abilities. The in-air audiogram of a male adult great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) was determined using psychophysical methods (method of constants). Hearing thresholds were derived using pure tones of five different frequencies. The lowest threshold was at 2 kHz: 1...
متن کاملHelminth parasites of the lesser great cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis from two nesting regions in the Czech Republic.
Parasitological examinations of 102 specimens of the lesser great cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis (Blumenbach) from two nesting regions in the Czech Republic (South Bohemia and South Moravia) were carried out at the Institute of Parasitology, Czech Academy of Sciences (previously the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences) in the years 1987-1992. In them, a total of 19 species of helminth para...
متن کاملCadmium and lead concentrations in Contracaecum rudolphii (Nematoda) and its host, the cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo (Aves).
There are a variety of ways to assess the environmental impacts on parasites (Lafferty D. 1997: Parasitol. Today 13: 251-255). Recent studies on endoparasites of fish have revealed that several helminths (mainly acanthocephalans, and to a lesser degree tapeworms) from the intestine of their definitive hosts bioconcentrate heavy metals above the values detected in host tissues (review in Sures B...
متن کاملPrey detection by great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) in clear and in turbid water.
The scattering and absorption of light by water molecules and by suspended and dissolved matter (turbidity) degrade image transmission and, thus, underwater perception. We tested the effects on visual detection of prey size and distance (affecting apparent prey size) and of low-level water turbidity in hand-reared great cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) diving for natural prey (fish) in...
