&lt;p&gt;Adene, D.F. and Dipeolu, O.O. 1975. Survey of Blood and&amp;nbsp; Ectoparasites&amp;nbsp; of&amp;nbsp; Domestic&amp;nbsp; Fowl&amp;nbsp; in&amp;nbsp; Ibadan, Western State of&amp;nbsp; Nigeria. Bull.&amp;nbsp; of Ani.&amp;nbsp; Health and Prod. in Africa, (3):333-335.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Abstract:&lt;/strong&gt; During the heavy rains of August 1973, all the domestic &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;fowls&lt;/span&gt; belonging to the Department of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Ibadan, &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Nigeria&lt;/span&gt;, which are kept on free range and mingle with fowls belonging to other owners, were found to be heavily infested with &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Haemaphysalis&lt;/span&gt; hoodi hoodi Warb. &amp;amp; Nutt. A brief survey of the blood &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;parasites&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;ectoparasites&lt;/span&gt; of domestic fowls kept under different management systems on some &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;poultry&lt;/span&gt; farms at Ibadan was therefore made in September. The only ectoparasites found were biting lice and wing &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;mites&lt;/span&gt;. The most abundant louse was &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Menopon gallinae&lt;/span&gt; (L.). Others were &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Lipeurus caponis&lt;/span&gt; (L.) and &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Cuclotogaster heterographa&lt;/span&gt; (Nitzsch). The only mite was &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Megninia cubitalis&lt;/span&gt; (Megn.). Only a small proportion of the fowls kept under the intensive system had ectoparasites. The proportion was high among those kept under extensive and semi-intensive systems. The blood parasites found included undetermined species of &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Plasmodium&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Leucocytozoon&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class=&quot;indexed-hide&quot;&gt;Aegyptianella pullorum&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ADDITIONAL ABSTRACT&lt;/strong&gt;:A survey of domestic fowl kept under different management conditions on some poultry farms at Ibadan, Nigeria, was conducted in 1973. 83 of 163 fowls possessed blood parasites, the commonest of which was Leucocytozoon (not previously reported from Nigeria). Plasmodium and Aegyptianella pullorum were also found but mixed infections were rare. Parasitaemias were generally low.&lt;/p&gt;
