Enkele aspekte van die identiteit, verspreiding, gedrag en voeding van die kameelperd Giraffa camelopardalis giraffa, Boddaert 1785 in die Nasionale Krugerwildtuin
No full textMSc, North-West University, Potchefstroom CampusThe availability of data recorded since 1902 on
the giraffe in the Kruger National Park (K.N.P.)
initiated this study and further relevant information gathered during the years 1972 to 1976 by
the author, led to the completion of this work.
Using eight morphological features it is concluded
that the giraffe population of the K.N.P. should
be assigned to Giraffa camelopardalis giraffa,
Boddaert.
Overall geographical distributio, patterns of
giraffe elsewhere in Africa seem to be greatly deter=
mined by a relatively .hot climate, a savanna type
of vegetation and the availability of preferred
plant species such as acacias and combretums and
this seems to be also true for the K.N.P. However,
these patterns are far from stable and may in the
K.N.P. be influenced by a combination of additional
factors such as migrational routes followed during
recolonization, bush fires, fences, competition with
members of its own species and other browsers
during periodes of dought, enemies and diseases.
Behaviour of herds and individuals with regard to
their own species and members of other species
show great similarity to the results obtained for
giraffe elsewhere in Africa.
Preferences of acacias and combretums are evident.
However under stresses of food shortages a grat
variety of other plant species may be utilized.
A steady increase in numbers since 1902 is ob=
served and although certain areas in the K.N.P.
are presently well populated, especially the
central and southern areas, there is reason to con=
elude that this animal has not reached its maximum
population density in areas where it is presently
found nor has it colonized all the areas suitable
for habitation.Master
Haemaphysalis aculeata Lavarra 1904
No full text3. Haemaphysalis aculeata Lavarra, 1904. Oriental: 1) India, 2) Sri Lanka (Geevarghese & Mishra 2011, Liyanaarachchi et al. 2015a). Keirans (1985b) included Indonesia within the range of Haemaphysalis aculeata, noting that the lectotype of this species had been collected in “Bodd, Indonesia (locality not verified).” However, Lavarra (1904) stated that Haemaphysalis aculeata had been collected from “ Tragulus meminna Bodd. delle Indie orientali.” In this case “Bodd.” is not an Indonesian locality but an abbreviation for “Boddaert,” probably referring to the description of Tragulus meminna on page 131 of Boddaert (1784); additionally, “Indie orientali” embraced a wider area than Indonesia at the beginning of the 20 th century. Indonesia is therefore not included within the range of Haemaphysalis aculeata.Published as part of Guglielmone, Alberto A., Nava, Santiago & Robbins, Richard G., 2023, Geographic distribution of the hard ticks (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae) of the world by countries and territories, pp. 1-274 in Zootaxa 5251 (1) on page 77, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5251.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/770419

Association of the mtDNA m.4171C>A/MT-ND1 mutation with both optic neuropathy and bilateral brainstem lesions
No full textBackground: An increasing number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations, mainly in complex I genes, have
been associated with variably overlapping phenotypes of Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON),
mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and Leigh syndrome (LS). We here describe
the first case in which the m.4171C>A/MT-ND1 mutation, previously reported only in association with LHON, leads
also to a Leigh-like phenotype.
Case presentation: A 16-year-old male suffered subacute visual loss and recurrent vomiting and vertigo associated
with bilateral brainstem lesions affecting the vestibular nuclei. His mother and one sister also presented subacute
visual loss compatible with LHON. Sequencing of the entire mtDNA revealed the homoplasmic m.4171C>A/MT-ND1
mutation, previously associated with pure LHON, on a haplogroup H background. Three additional non-synonymous
homoplasmic transitions affecting ND2 (m.4705T>C/MT-ND2 and m.5263C>T/MT-ND2) and ND6 (m.14180T>C/MT-ND6)
subunits, well recognized as polymorphisms in other mtDNA haplogroups but never found on the haplogroup H
background, were also present.
Conclusion: This case widens the phenotypic expression of the rare m.4171C>A/MT-ND1 LHON mutation, which
may also lead to Leigh-like brainstem lesions, and indicates that the co-occurrence of other ND non-synonymous
variants, found outside of their usual mtDNA backgrounds, may have increased the pathogenic potential of the
primary LHON mutation
