ÖZET: Bu çalışmada, Kütahya-Eskişehir arasında, Türkmen Dağı’nda yaralı olarak bulunan bir Kara Akbaba (Aegypius monachus) ektoparazitler yönünden incelenmiştir. Yapılan muayene sonucu üç adet bit toplanmıştır. Toplanan bitler, içinde %70’lik alkol bulunan bir şişeye konulmuş, daha sonra, %10’luk KOH’ de saydamlaştırılmışlardır. Faure Forte Medium ile lam üzerine yapıştırılan bitlerin morfolojik yapıları ışık mikroskobunda incelenmiş ve ölçümleri yapılmıştır. İncelemeler sonucu, toplanan örneklerin hepsi Colpocephalum trachelioti Price&Beer, 1963 olarak teşhis edilmiştir. Bu araştırma ile C. trachelioti Türkiye’de ilk kez tespit edilmiş ve bu tür hakkında ayrıntılı bilgi verilmiştir.

English title: First report of Colpocephalum trachelioti (Amblycera: Menoponidae) on a Black Vulture (Aegypius monachus L.) in Turkey

SUMMARY: In this study, a black vulture (Aegypius monachus) found wounded on Türkmen Mountain, between Eskisehir and Küta- hya, was inspected for ectoparasites. Three lice specimens were collected from the black vulture. They were preserved in a vial contain- ing 70% alcohol. Later, they were mounted on slides by Faure Forte Medium and cleared in 10% KOH. Morphologic characteristics of the lice were inspected and measured under the light microscope. All of them were identified as Colpocephalum trachelioti, Price & Beer 1963. This is first time that C. trachelioti has been found in Turkey.

The goal of this study was to identify the chewing lice species of migratory and non-migratory wild birds in the province of Bursa, which is located in northwestern Turkey, between August 2009 and November 2012. Sixty-eight birds brought to the animal hospital in need of medical intervention, which belonged to 25 species, 20 genera and 15 families in 10 orders, were examined for ectoparasites. To sample for the presence of chewing lice, an insecticide was pulverised on the feathers of each bird over a white piece of paper, and then all of the lice were collected and placed in tubes containing 70% alcohol. The lice specimens were cleared in 10% KOH for 24 h, mounted in Canada balsam and identified using a light microscope. Forty (58.8%) out of 68 birds examined were infested with at least one species of chewing lice, and a total of 29 lice species were found on the birds. This study represents the first documentation in Turkey of 9 of these lice species and also provides the first worldwide record of Degeeriella nisus on the Common buzzard (Buteo buteo).

This study was carried out on two long-legged buzzards that were brought for treatment to the surgery clinic of the Veterinary Faculty, University of Selçuk. A few lice were observed on the body surfaces of the birds. Forty-seven lice were collected from the buzzards. The lice were preserved in a tube containing 70% ethanol. They were mounted on slides separately after being cleared in lactophenol. Four species of lice (Laemobothrion maximum, Degeeriella fulva, Craspedorrynchus platystomus, and Colpocephalum sp.) were identified by microscopical examination. The specimens of Colpocephalum could not be identified at the species level because of poor conditions of some morphological characteristics such as chaetotaxy of the body or male genitalia.
