Description Not Available
Mithun, a semi-domesticated bovine species living in the forests of
North-East India is known to share some of the helminths and ticks
parasitizing domesticated cattle. The present investigation conducted to
ascertain lice infestation in mithun revealed identification of Linognathus
vituli, a sucking louse of cattle. One male mithun calf out of 53 animals had
infestation with this species. Non-detection of other bovine species of lice
such as Damalinia bovis and Hematopinus eurysternus in this forest
dwelling animal necessitates further study in a larger group of animals
particularly during winter season.
