On the occurrence of Gapeworms in Nestling Starlings and adult Fowls
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 November 2009
Extract
Taylor (1928), in an attempt to infect starlings with the gapeworm, was able to infect six starlings out of fifteen which had been dosed, nine of which died before any observations could be made. The value of this experiment is, however, somewhat doubtful owing to the possibility of previous infection in the starlings experimented with, and the author concludes that in one bird, such was the case, owing to the size of the worms found.
