Isospora bocamontensis (Protozoa: Apicomplexa) in captive yellow cardinal Gubernatrix cristata (Passeriformes: Emberezidae)

Abstract: The yellow cardinal (Gubernatrix cristata) is a passerine found in southern Brazil, especially along the border with Uruguay and Argentina. It is an endangered species and its population is decreasing. Among the parasites that affect passerines, the genus Isospora is the most easily found in both captive and free-living birds. This parasite commonly causes injury to the intestinal tissue and could occasionally affect other organs. In this work we examined the occurrence of coccidiosis in captive yellow cardina… Show more

“…Environmental and nutritional requirements of species kept in captivity are the major aspects to be addressed in such projects (KARSTEN, 2007). While important questions regarding management limitations in captive breeding programs have been raised (SNYDER et al, 1996;HEMMINGS et al, 2012), little specific and detailed information from bird breeding centers is available (CORK et al, 1999;CRUZ et al, 2011;PEREIRA et al, 2013), albeit this may be useful for planning such conservation initiatives. In this sense, analysis of the financial costs involved (FA et al, 2011;CRUZ et al, 2016) is essential for decision making or planning captive breeding efforts.…”

“…Sin embargo, la continuidad de sus poblaciones se encuentra fragmentada y en contracción; el número de individuos disminuye, principalmente por la extracción de ejemplares machos para el tráfico ilegal (Bertonatti & Guerra 1997;Reales et al 2019;Segura et al 2019) y el cambio en el uso del suelo (Reales et al 2019;Dalia et al 2023). Además, la población se ve afectada por otros eventos naturales tal como el parasitismo de cría por Molothrus bonariensis y parasitismo por larvas de moscas del género Philornis (Pereira et al 2013;Domínguez et al 2014;Atencio et al 2020;Silva et al 2021). También se ha reportado al Cardenal Amarillo como hospedador de Isospora bocamontensis (Protozoa: Apicomplexa) y una variante de adenovirus perteneciente al género Siadenovirus.…”
