The two Old World genera, Phlebotomus and Sergentomyia, were both recorded in southern Anatolia Turkey. species predominated comprised about 93% of the entire collection (3, 172 specimens). Out sixteen identified, belonged to genus Sergentomyia: S. dentata theodori. remaining fourteen grouped under four subgenera including some that are elsewhere known act as vectors human cutaneous leishmaniasis. Most P. tobbi (32.5%), but papatasi, transcaucasicus, halepensis, galilaeus, sergenti,...
The province of Hatay, which lies on the Mediterranean coast in south-eastern Turkey, forms an important endemic area for human cutaneous leishmaniasis (HCL). Between June and November 2001, sandflies eight areas province, Erzin, Dortyol, Iskenderun, Kirikhan, Antakya, Samandag, Altinozu Yayladagi, were surveyed, using sticky-paper traps placed goat, sheep, cow or chicken sheds close to houses. Although 217 998 caught belonged genus Sergentomyia, rest Phlebotomus species, including some...
Abstract The present study was conducted to determine the prevalence of canine dirofilariosis in Hatay province, south Turkey. A total 269 blood samples were collected from owned dogs this multi-centre survey between March and July 2006. Blood examined by modified Knott enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) techniques detect circulating microfilariae antigens Dirofilaria immitis , respectively. Seventy out (26.0%) positive for D. . However, 61.4% had occult infection. heterogeneous with...
The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence nosemosis by using microscopic and molecular (Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)) methods in honey bees Hatay province, investigate effects beekeepers' attitudes behaviors apiary conditions on spread disease through a survey study. In study, adult bee samples were collected from 450 hives 75 apiaries 6 districts region between March 2019 May 2019. This particular area was chosen because many beekeepers overwinter their here movement colonies...
Between the April and October of 1997, sandflies in six areas (Centrum, Altinekin, Kadinhani, Cumra, Beysehir Bozkir) Turkish province Konya, Central Anatolia, were surveyed. All caught close to houses, on sticky-paper traps placed barns used by livestock. 127 specimens Sergentomyia collected either S. theodori (86.6%) or dentata (13.4%). The other 2017 represented 12 species Phlebotomus - mostly P. papatasi (78.4%) halepensis (10.9%), with sergenti (3.8%), simici (2.2%), kandelakii (1.6%),...
Abstract Seventy-nine owned dogs (47 males and 32 females) from Antakya province were examined for E. granulosus by coproantigen ELISA (CHEKIT®-ECHINOTEST) between April to July in 2006. The estimated prevalence of infection was 8.86 % (7/79). Mean age the with 2.3 years ranging one five years. There no statistically significant difference regarding male female dogs. A detected unrestrained (or free roaming) indoor or chained (p < 0.05). Although is low, incidence quite high undewormed...
Wild animals play an important role as amplifiers and/or reservoir hosts in the ecology of many ticks and tick-borne pathogens affecting livestock humans.In this study, which was carried out Hatay province, southernmost region Anatolia, a total 362 (210♀, 146 ♂, 6N) tick specimens were collected from 18 wild 7 species, including white stork (Ciconia ciconia) (n = 1), roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) 5), badger (Meles meles) 2), jackal (Canis aureus) 3), red fox (Vulpes vulpes) hare (Lepus...
Hemosporidian parasites that cause infections in poultry and death susceptible animals show a global distribution. In this distribution, the role of infected wild birds migrating among different regions world is great. Hatay, where migratory enter Turkey, an active region terms vectors, disease agents hosts. study, it was aimed to investigate prevalence Haemoproteus Leucocytozoon Hatay province by microscopic molecular methods. Blood samples were taken from total 50 belonging three orders,...
was carried out to determine chewing lice species of the wild birds, which were brought Veterinary Health, Practice and Research Center Wild Animal Rescue Rehabilitation Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, between May 2018-August 2022.For this purpose, 75 birds injured or sick, needed medical treatment when they arrived at hospital, examined for lice.A total 356 specimens collected, representing 148 males, 157 females 51 nymphs.The majority bird collected (317 356) belonged Amlyceran suborder,...
Abstract Deformed wing virus (DWV), which is an important honey bee transmitted by Varroa destructor (V. destructor) , causes colony losses in colonies. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and genetic diversity of DWV bees Türkiye determine role V. transmission variants DWV. Honey samples were collected from 62 apiaries, simple random sampling, during March 2022 April 2023. The presence was examined using a stereo microscope. Real-time RT-PCR used for detection DWV-A DWV-B (...
The current study aimed to detect parasites in Hatay Mountain Gazelles (Gazella gazella), which are categorized as endangered according the International Union for Conservation of Nature. present was conducted Gazelle Wildlife Development Area, where 40 gazelles inhabited (30 ♀, 10 ♂), 15 were over three years old well-considered adults. Fecal samples taken from 60 fecal foci immediately after defecation gazelles. Each analysed with Benedek sedimentation, Fülleborn flotation and...
