Abstract AR
تم في هذا البحث دراسة بيئية لتواجد ثلاثة أنواع من الديدان المفلطحة (المغايرة) التابعة لفصيلة Heterophyidae لأول مرة في أمعاء 15 طائر النورس Larus hemprichii في منطقة ثول بمحافظة جدة, المملكة العربية السعودية.
و قد أظهرت الخواص و القياسات المميزة لهذه العينات التعريف المناسب لكل نوع على حدى.
حيث تم التعرف على الأنواع التالية : Heterophyes heterophyes, Heterophyopsis continua, and Stictodora lari و يعتبر النوع الأخير تسجيلا نادر الانتشار في منطقة الشرق الأوسط, إلا أن نتائج هذا البحث أظهرت معدل (عدد الديدان في الطيور المصابة) 34.75 لهذا النوع كان أعلى من النوعين الآخرين H.
heterophyes (27.88) و H.
continua (14.75).
كما أظهرت النتائج النسبة العالية للإصابة بنوع H.
heterophyes (53.33%) من كل من النوعين الآخرين H.
continua, and S.
lari (26.67%) لكل منهما.
Abstract EN
Three species of the trematodes, family Heterophyidae, Heterophyes heterophyes, Heterophyopsis continua, and Stictodora lari are recorded as a first report from the intestine of fifteen Sooty Gulls (Larus hemprichii) ; from the seashore of Thuwal, Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Diagnostic characters and measurements were used to identify these three species.
Infection with H.
hetero-phyes was found to be the most prevalent (53.
33 %), whereas, in-fection with Heterophyopsis continua and with Stictodora lari were less prevalent (26.
67 % individually).
The two former species were ac-cumulated from the same intestine of one bird.
Although the infection with S.
lari is rarely distributed in Middle East, the finding of the mean number of warms was higher (34.
75) than H.
heterophyes (17.
88) and H.
continua (14.
75).
