Abstract |
The host preference, survival rates, and length of the gonotrophic cycle of Anopheles punctimacula was investigated in southern Mexico. Mosquitoes were collected in 15-day separate experiments during the rainy and dry seasons. Daily changes in the parous-nulliparous ratio were recorded and the gonotrophic cycle length was estimated by a time series analysis. Anopheles punctimacula was most abundant during the dry season and preferred animals to humans. The daily survival rate in mosquitoes collected in animal traps was 0.96 (parity rate = 0.86; gonotrophic cycle = 4 days). The length of gonotrophic cycle of 4 days was estimated on the base of a high correlation coefficient value appearing every 4 days. The minimum time estimated for developing mature eggs after blood feeding was 72 h. The proportion of mosquitoes living enough to transmit Plasmodium vivax malaria during the dry season was 0.35. |

Abstract |
Anthropophagic horses have been described in classical mythology. From a current perspective, two such instances are worth mentioning and describing: Glaucus of Potniae, King of Efyra, and Diomedes, King of Thrace, who were both devoured by their horses. In both cases, the horses' extreme aggression and their subsequent anthropophagic behaviour were attributed to their madness (hippomania) induced by the custom of feeding them with flesh. The current problem of 'mad cow' disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) is apparently related to a similar feed pattern. Aggressive behaviour in horses can be triggered by both biological and psychological factors. In the cases cited here, it is rather unlikely that the former were the cause. On the other hand, the multiple abuses imposed on the horses, coupled with people's fantasies and largely unconscious fears (hippophobia), may possibly explain these mythological descriptions of 'horse-monsters'. |

Abstract |
Determined behavioral audiograms for 3 horses and 2 cows. Horses' hearing ranged from 55 Hz to 33.3 kHz, with a region of best sensitivity from 1 to 16 kHz. Cattle hearing ranged from 23 Hz to 35 kHz, with a well-defined point of best sensitivity at 8 kHz. Of the 2 species, cattle proved to have more acute hearing, with a lowest threshold of –21 db (re 20 μN/m–2) compared with the horses' lowest threshold of 7 db. Comparative analysis of the hearing abilities of these 2 species with those of other mammals provides further support for the relation between interaural distance and high-frequency hearing and between high- and low-frequency hearing.

Abstract |
The aim of our work was to investigate the hypothesis that the speed of solving the maze tests and
locomotor behavior of heifers in open-field tests are affected by the height location of facial whorl.
Fifty-eight Holstein heifers were used. Maze learning was observed at the age of 15 weeks, and an
open-field test was applied at two ages, 16 weeks and 18 months. Whorl placement was recorded by
one person as each heifer entered the scale. The hair whorl position was determined on the basis of
two patterns: A) hair whorl high, middle and low and B) hair whorl high and low. Heifers with a
high hair whorl were the fastest (77.8 ± 84.3 s) and heifers with a middle hair whorl the slowest (87.3
± 100.3 s) in the A pattern during the maze tests. In the B whorl pattern, heifers with a high hair whorl
ran across the maze in 84.5 ± 95.2 s and heifers with a low hair whorl in 84.1 ± 97.9 s. The number
of crossed squares in a 5-minute open-field test in the A pattern was the non-significantly highest in
heifers with a high hair whorl (43.4) at the age of 16 weeks. In the B whorl pattern, heifers with a
high hair whorl were also more mobile, but neither differences in individual minutes nor in the whole
5 minutes were significant. Heifers with a high hair whorl displayed the strongest locomotory
behavior (37.6 squares) and heifers with a low hair whorl (30.8) were the slowest in the A pattern at
the age of 18 months. The differences were not significant. In the B whorl pattern, heifers with a
high hair whorl crossed more squares, but the difference was not significant in comparison with
heifers with a low hair whorl. We found that the time of traversing the maze and the locomotor
activity in open-field test may not be influenced in the dairy cattle by the height facial whorl position |

Abstract |
The group Q streptococci possess unique serological and physiological characteristics which differentiate them from established enterococci. The group Q antigen was not demonstrable in all strains; however, all possessed the group D antigen. All group Q strains were physiologically similar regardless of whether or not they possessed the group Q antigen. These strains differed from the established enterococcal species, as they neither hydrolyzed arginine nor initiated growth in 1.0% methylene blue-milk. They also differed radically in the fermentation of various carbohydrates, especially the polyhydric sugar alcohols. The results indicate that the group Q streptococci constitute a unique taxonomic entity; the species designation Streptococcus avium sp. n. is suggested, owing to their characteristic occurrence in chicken fecal specimens. |
