摘要在北方爱尔兰的Co.Down，以每月一次的时间间隔，在落叶林和针叶林中捕获了两个森林姬鼠种群，历时33个月。小鼠种群的动态、繁殖和年龄结构在不同年份之间存在差异，种群规模超过40倍。从小鼠消化道和相关器官中回收了9种蠕虫。绦虫、叶带绦虫、冬眠膜壳绦虫和带绦虫的患病率和平均虫负荷变化不规律。吸虫，Corrigia vitta和在较小程度上Brachylaima recurva，丰富的季节性变化。的线虫毛细线虫murissylvaesthetic和Nematospiroides nervus有强烈的季节性周期的丰富与主机繁殖的开始。鼠鞭虫是最罕见的蠕虫。尽管长时间的缺席，这一物种保持了季节性增加，平均蠕虫负担在冬末。线虫，Syphacia stroma，有一个弱的季节性格局的动态。这些周期性和非周期性动态的基础A。讨论了林栖动物。
ABSTRACT Two populations of Apodemus sylvaticus, one in deciduous woodland and another in coniferous forest in Co. Down, Northern Ireland, were trapped at monthly intervals over 33 months. The dynamics, reproduction and age structure of the mouse populations differed between years with over a 40 fold range of population size. Nine species of helminths were recovered from the alimentary tract and associated organs of the mice. The prevalence and mean worm burden of the cestodes, Catenotaenia lobata, Hymenolepis hibernia and Taenia taeniaeformis varied erratically. The trematodes, Corrigia vitta and to a lesser degree Brachylaima recurva, had seasonal changes in abundance. The nematodes Capillaria murissylvatici and Nematospiroides dubius had strongly seasonal cycles of abundance associated with the onset of host reproduction. Trichuris muris was the rarest helminth. Despite protracted periods of absence this species maintained a seasonal increase in mean worm burden in late winter. The nematode, Syphacia stroma, had a weakly seasonal pattern of dynamics. The bases of these cyclical and non-cyclical dynamics of the helminths of A. sylvaticus are discussed.
