Escape processes in embryos of dicyemids (phylum dicyemida)
J Parasitol. 2023 Oct 1;109(5):496-505. doi: 10.1645/23-30.ABSTRACTDicyemid mesozoans usually consist of 10 to 40 cells. They are characterized by 2 distinct embryos, vermiform and infusoriform, that develop within the axial cell of the adult. The means of escape of each embryo from the parent body was studied in Dicyema japonicum and Dicyema misakiense, parasites of Octopus sinensis. There were no differences in means of escape between species or embryo type, apparently due to morphological constraints whereby the parents (nematogen or rhombogen) share a similar body organization. Escapes were effected through the gap bet...

Clinical and subclinical cytauxzoon felis infections in domestic cats from a recently identified endemic region
J Parasitol. 2023 Oct 1;109(5):525-529. doi: 10.1645/23-25.ABSTRACTCytauxzoon felis is a tick-transmitted intraerythrocytic apicomplexan infecting felids in the southeastern and midwestern United States. Bobcats (Lynx rufus) are the natural wildlife reservoir of C. felis, where in enzootic areas prevalence can reach 100%. Domestic cats can be subclinically infected with C. felis or can develop cytauxzoonosis. Two studies have documented the presence of C. felis in domestic cats in Illinois; these studies have shown a limited number of cases submitted to specialty labs. During 2014-2018, we obtained blood samples collected ...
