dc.description.abstractTrapping of small mammals in a ricefield at Kramat Tunggak around Tanjung Priok in Jakarta city, was carried out from July 1977 through June 1978. Of three species of rodents, R.argentiventer was found to be the predominant species in the ricefield. R.r.diardii was an intermittent resident, and the presence of R.norvegicus was interesting observation. S.murinus, a house shrew, was also present. R.argentiventer was the dominant species during the periods when the rice grains were available as a source of food. Infestation with Gamasid mites and non-vector chiggers was found common in all rodent species examined. R. argentiventer was the only species found infested with the classical scrub typhus vector (L. (L.) deliense). The density and mean chigger-load of the scrub typhus vector chiggers were found to be high in stages 4 and 5 of the ricefields when the micro-habitats were favourable. The oriental rat flea (X. cheopis) was found infesting all species of rodents.en_US
