Egret

More recently, Henry et al. (2002) have applied this same profile approach to dorrble-crested cormorants, snowy egrets, and black-crowned night herons from the Carson River system, demonstrating its across-species applicability. Hermy and coworkers expanded the profile to include histopathological parameters. [Pg.152]

It is normally found in Japan, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and parts of Oceania. The natural reservoirs are water birds such as herons and egrets, and mosquitoes. Swine acts as amplifying host and has very important role in epidemiology of the disease. Human and horses are dead-end hosts and disease is manifested as fatal encephalitis. This is a biosafety level 3 agent. [Pg.550]

Spraying of PCP to control populations of water snails in rice fields of Surinam resulted in the death of fish and birds, including snail kites (Rostrhamus sociabilis), certain egrets and herons, and wattled jacanas (Jacana jacana). Levels of PCP in these birds and their food items suggested that PCP-contaminated food probably caused the deaths (Vermeer et al. 1974) (Table 23.5). [Pg.1214]
