Acid-fast intranuclear inclusion bodies in the kidneys of mallards fed lead shot
L. N. Locke, George E. Bagley, H.D. Irby
1966, Bulletin of the Wildlife Disease Association (2) 127-131
Acid-fast intranuclear inclusion bodies were found in the cells of the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidneys of mallards fed one, two, three or eight number 6 lead shot and maintained on cracked or whole corn and on grain-duck pellet diets. No acid-fast inclusion bodies were found in mallards fed...
The status of the osprey in Cape May County, New Jersey, between 1939 and 1963
F. C. Schmid
1966, Chesapeake Science (7) 220-223
Comparison is made of the population of ospreys in Cape May County, N.J., in the late 1930's with that in 1963, and with a population of these birds at Tilghman Island, Maryland. Production of young per nest in the 1930's compares favorably with the production of young in the populations...
A method of shipping live larvae of Simulium vittatum long distances (Diptera: Simuliidae)
I.B. Tarshis
1966, Annals of the Entomological Society of America (59) 866-867
During studies on the biology and ecology of black flies (Simuliidae) at the Seney National Wildlife Refuge, Seney, Michigan, and at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, Laurel, Maryland, larvae of 3 species of black fly (Simulium vittatum Zetterstedt, S. aureum Fries, and S. decorum Walker) were collected and transported for distances of up to 50...
Red-winged blackbirds searching beneath pine bark for insects in winter
B. Meanley
1966, The Auk (83) 480-481
Most observers usually associate the Red-winged Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) with open country such as marshes or upland fields and their wooded or brushy borders. On the wintering grounds in the coniferous belt of the southeastern United States, however, Red-wings spend some of their time feeding in pine forests. In...
Electron microscope study of Sarcocystis sp
V.H. Zeve, D.L. Price, C. M. Herman
1966, Experimental Parasitology (18) 338-346
Sarcocystis sp. obtained from wild populations of grackles, Quiscalus quiscula (Linn.), were examined to clarify the effect of the parasite on the host. Electron micrographs are presented to show areas of muscle destruction adjacent to the parasite which appear to be mechanically produced by the parasite. The microtubules within the...
Trichinosis in Maryland raccoons
D.J. Winslow, D.L. Price, R.C. Neafie, C. M. Herman
1966, Bulletin of the Wildlife Disease Association (2) 81-82
During recent studies of experimental Chagas’ disease, trichinosis was found in 2 out of a total of 44 Maryland raccoons (Procyon lotor) examined histologically following necropsy. All raccoons were trapped near the towns of Beltsville or Laurel. The raccoons found to have trichinosis were trapped in the area of the...
Second nestings of the wood ducks
Frank B. McGilvrey
1966, The Auk (83) 303-303
This is a description of the renesting of two Wood Ducks (Aix sponsa) after hatching broods. I can find but two previous records of such behavior. Barnes (Auk, 65: 449, 1948) reported an incident of a hand-reared bird nesting in the wild in Indiana. This female was unable to get...
Fall food habits of ducks near Santee Refuge, South Carolina
Frank B. McGilvrey
1966, Journal of Wildlife Management (30) 577-580
During the 1961 waterfowl hunting season, 360 stomachs of 10 duck species were collected from hunters near the Santee National Wildlife Refuge, Lake Marion, South Carolina. Based on percentage of total volume, 20 of the most important foods are listed. The six most important duck species in the kill were:...
Subinoculation as a technique in the diagnosis of avian plasmodium
C. M. Herman, J.O. Knisley, E.L. Snyder
1966, Avian Diseases (10) 541-547
In two successive years, 1964 and 1965, blood subinoculated from wild Canada geese, negative for Plasmodium by examination of peripheral blood smears, into 5-day-old domestic geese produced 60 % infection in the recipients. Prepatent and patent periods, as well as intensity of parasitemia showed much variation. Intramuscular inoculation produced the...

1966, Conference Paper, Transactions of the North American Wildlife and Natural Resources Conference

Residues of DDT in brains and bodies of birds that died on dosage and in survivors
L.F. Stickel, W. H. Stickel, R. Christensen
1966, Science (151) 1549-1551
Residues of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)-ethane (DDT) and 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)-ethane (DDD) in brains of cowbirds (Molothrus ater) killed by dietary dosage of DDT were similar in birds that died after various lengths of time on dosage and in birds that died of delayed effects after as much as 40 days on clean food. Residues...
Spermatogenesis in bald eagles experimentally fed a diet containing DDT
L. N. Locke, N.J. Chura, P.A. Stewart
1966, Condor (68) 497-502
When Bald Eagles were fed DDT in the diet at the level of 10 ppm (dry weight basis) for periods of 60 and 120 days, there was no interference with spermatogenic activity. Degenerative testicular changes were produced only by levels of DDT that produced abnormal neurological signs and usually resulted...
