description | The original lifetime method of
microarthropods collecting, including non- parasitic, from
birds’ plumage, on the basis of application of a household
vacuum cleaner with the demountable filter is described
in this publication. The researches were carried out on the
East Murman. With the help of this method, the authors
collected soil microarthropods, including 5 oribatid mite
species (adult individuals of Liebstadia similis (Michael,
1888), Parachipteria punctata (Nicolet, 1855), Microppia
minus (Paoli, 1908), larva of Limnozetes sp. and Camisia
sp.), Bdellidae and other mites, and also collembolans from
the plumage of 107 individuals of 14 species of birds. Till
now, non-parasitic microarthropods were taken only from
the plumage of the dead birds when body or skin were
settled down on Berlese-Tullgren’ funnels. This classic
for soil-zoological researches method allowed finding
various non-parasitic microfauna into the plumage of
birds. However, the comparative analysis of efficiency of
two methods showed low efficiency of a lifetime method in
comparison with the one used earlier. |
