Abstract

This study was performed to provide information on Tricholipeurus balanicus (Werneck 1938) detected on slender-horned gazelles (Gazella leptoceros) (Cuvier 1842). Four slender-horned gazelles kept in the El Hamma Zoological Garden in Algeria were examined for lice in April 2015. Three of the four gazelles were infested with lice; of 37 lice collected from the infested animals, 14 were females, 16 were males, and 7 were nymphs. Lice were mainly found on the back and hind legs of the gazelles. The lice were collected by a forceps, preserved in 70% alcohol, and cleared in 10% KOH for 24 h. Thereafter, they were rinsed in distilled water, transferred to 70% and 99% alcohol, mounted on slides in Canada balsam, examined under a binocular microscope, and identified as Tricholipeurus balanicus (Werneck, 1938). To the best of our knowledge, T. balanicus on G. leptoceros has been reported for the first time.

Özet

Bu çalışma Çöl ceylanlarında (Gazella leptoceros) (Cuvier, 1842) tespit edilen Tricholipeurus balanicus (Werneck, 1938) hakkında bilgi vermek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Cezayir'de, El Hamma Hayvanat Bahçesi'ndeki dört Çöl ceylanı Nisan 2015'de bit yönünden incelenmiştir. İncelenen 4 ceylandan üçü bitle enfeste bulunmuş, enfeste hayvanlardan 14'ü dişi, 16'sı erkek ve 7'si nimf olmak üzere 37 bit toplanmıştır. Bitlere ceylanların özellikle sırt kısımlarında ve arka bacaklarında rastlanmıştır. Bitler bir pensle toplanmış, %70 alkolde saklanmış ve saydamlaştırılmak üzere %10 Potasyum hidroksit (KOH) içinde 24 saat bekletilmiştir. Sonra distile su, %70 ve %99 alkolden geçirilmiş, Kanada balsamla lam üzerine yapıştırılarak binoküler mikroskopta incelenmiş ve Tricholipeurus balanicus (Werneck, 1938) olarak teşhis edilmiştir. Bu araştırmayla T. balanicus G. leptoceros'dan ilk kez kaydedilmiştir.
