DDT vs. wildlife: Relationships between quantities ingested, toxic effects and tissue storage
J.B. DeWitt, J.V. Derby Jr., G.F. Mangan Jr.
1955, Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association, Scientific Edition (44) 22-24
Young and adult quail and pheasants were fed diets containing DDT. Chemical analysis of tissues indicated that quantities of DDT stored were not proportional to total amounts administered nor to duration of exposure, but were related to the severity of toxic symptoms. Concentration of the toxicant in breast muscle of...

Pesticide toxicity, effects of chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides upon quail and pheasants
J.B. DeWitt
1955, Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (3) 672-676
Previous studies had shown that heavy or repeated applications of DDT resulted in decreases.in bird populations, but long-range effects of this and other chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides had not been fully evaluated. Experiments were conducted to determine toxiCitY to quail and pheasants of aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, and strobane, and to...

Macracanthorhynchus ingens from raccoons in Maryland
Carlton M. Herman
1955, Proceedings of the Helminthological Society of Washington (22) 105-105
There have been very few published records of the occurrence of the acanthocephalan parasite Macracanthorhynchus ingens (von Linstow, 1897) in North America. Chandler (1942) and Moore (1946) reported 11 o 13 raccoons (Procyon lotor) trapped in Angelina County, Texas, infected with these intestinal parasites. From 1 to 90 worms occurred...
