چکیده
W THEN notoedric mange is present in a large rabbit colony it becomes a serious menace unless adequate measures are taken to control it. The disease seems invariably to appear first on the nose, later spreading over the frontal region, lips, eyelids, and base of the ears. Simultaneously with the spread of lesions on the head, the lateral aspect of the hind limbs, the dorsal aspect of the fore limbs and the external genitalia are involved. In extreme cases, the skin of the abdomen is also affected.
