Failure to infect laboratory rodent hosts with human isolates of Rodentolepis(= Hymenolepis) nana (2002)
Journal Article
MacNish, M., Morgan, U., Behnke, J. M., & Thompson, R. (2002). Failure to infect laboratory rodent hosts with human isolates of Rodentolepis(= Hymenolepis) nana. Journal of Helminthology, 76(1), https://doi.org/10.1079/JOH200198

Confusion exists over the species status and host-specificity of the tapeworm Rodentolepis (= Hymenolepis) nana. It has been described as one species, R. nana, found in both humans and rodents. Others have identified a subspecies; R. nana var. frater... Read More about Failure to infect laboratory rodent hosts with human isolates of Rodentolepis(= Hymenolepis) nana.

Seasonal distribution of genetic types of planktonic foraminifer morphospecies in the Santa Barbara Channel and its paleoceanographic implications (2001)
Journal Article

We present data on the temporal distribution of planktonic foraminifer genotypes (small subunit (SSU)ribosomal (r) RNA gene) and morphospecies (sediment traps) collected during 1999 in the Santa Barbara Channel. The sampling was undertaken with speci...

Monospecific helminth and arthropod infections in an urban population of brown rats from Doha, Qatar (2001)
Journal Article
Abu-Madi, M. A., Lewis, J. W., Mikhail, M., El-Nagger, M., & Behnke, J. M. (2001). Monospecific helminth and arthropod infections in an urban population of brown rats from Doha, Qatar. Journal of Helminthology, 75(4),

Parasitic infections were studied for the first time in an urban population of brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) from Doha. Only one species of helminth was found, the cestode Hymenolepis diminuta, and one ectoparasite, the flea Xenopsylla astia, from a...

Specimens of the planktic foraminiferal morphospecies, Globigerina bulloides, Turborotalita quinqueloba, Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (dextral) and Globigerinita uvula, were collected along a subarctic Atlantic transect. Partial sequences of the small... Read More about Genotypic variability in subarctic Atlantic planktic foraminifera.

Patterns of genetic variation in pacific island land snails: The distribution of cytochrome b lineages among Society Island Partula (2001)
Journal Article

The radiation of Partula land snails has produced a large array of distinct morphological, ecological and behavioural types occupying many tropical volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean. Within the Society Islands of French Polynesia, the mode of evo...
