초록
1990연 6월부터 9월 사이에 강원도 횡성군의 백로 서식지에서 12마리의 중대백로를 포획하여 소장 내의 흡충류 감염 상태를 조사하고 아울러 검출된 흡충의 형태 특징을 관찰하여 종을 분류한 결과 5종의 흡충 Metagonimus sp. (67%), Centrocestus armntus(67%), Echinochasmus japonicus(50%), Strigea falconis(83%)와 Diplostomidae요(33%) 감염이 분류동정되었다. 이상의 결과로 중대백로는 인수공통기생충의 보유숙주로서 중요한 인체 기생충의 매개조류임을 알 수 있었다. Key words: Metagonimus sp., Centrocestus armatus, Echinochasmus iaponicus, Strigea falconis, Diplostomidae, Egrets, Hoengseong-gun (Kangwon Province)
We surveyed 12 migrating large egrets, Egretta alba modesta, for their infection status with intestinal trematodes, from June to September, 1990. All of them were infected with one or more flukes. Total 5 species were identified. Their infection rates and total numbers of worms were Metagonimus sp. 67% and 1, 412, Centrocestus armatus 67% and 2, 306, Echinochasmus japenicus 50% and 99, Strigea falconis 83% and 635, and a diplostomid cuke 33% and 36. The number of worms in a bird was in the range from 6 to 896. This is the first record that the egret is a reservoir host of Metagonimus sp., C. armatus, E. japonicus, and S. falconis. S. falconis is a new parasite fauna in Korea. Migrating birds must play an important role in the transmission and spreading of these intestinal trematodes in Korea.
