Avian Cestode Parasites of Jhansi — 1989 Study

Author Bio

**Srivastava, Brajesh Kumar** completed his MSc research in **1989** under the **Department of Zoology** at **Bundelkhand University**. His work focuses on the **morphology and ecology of avian cestode parasites**, combining field collections from local **fowls** with careful laboratory identification. Srivastava’s thesis documents host–parasite records and provides detailed species descriptions useful to parasitologists and wildlife researchers. The study emphasizes **taxonomic characters**, ecological notes on host populations, and implications for avian health in the **Jhansi** region. His research adds a regional baseline for future surveys and comparative helminthological studies.

Thesis Details

Title: **Study of abian cestode parasites and ecological obserbation of fomls in Jhansi** Researcher: **Srivastava, Brajesh Kumar** Guide: **Saxena, A K** University: Bundelkhand University. 0 Year of Completion: **1989** Department: **Department of Zoology**

This thesis presents a regional survey of avian cestode parasites collected from domestic and wild fowls in and around Jhansi, documenting species-level identifications and ecological observations of host populations. The study combines field sampling methods, host examination protocols, and morphological descriptions (including measurements and diagnostic characters) to clarify local cestode diversity.

Results include host–parasite records, notes on infection prevalence, and comments on seasonal or habitat-related differences in parasite occurrence. Line drawings and comparative tables support species diagnoses and aid identification.

The work is a useful reference for parasitologists, wildlife veterinarians, and ecologists interested in avian helminths in the Bundelkhand region. This thesis has been placed in the Zoology Thesis Research category; view more at Zoology Thesis Research.
