Distribution
In the United States, E. schneideri has been reported from various wild hosts in 18 states: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota (in imported animals), Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. It has also been reported from elk and Black-tailed Deer in Canada.
Species of Elaeophora other than E. schneideri infest various mammals in Europe, Asia and Africa. One survey of Red Deer (Cervus e. elaphus), Fallow deer (Dama dama), as well as domestic sheep, cattle and goats in Czechoslovakia yielded no specimens of E. schneideri.

Famous quotes containing the word distribution:
“Classical and romantic: private language of a family quarrel, a dead dispute over the distribution of emphasis between man and nature.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“There is the illusion of time, which is very deep; who has disposed of it? Mor come to the conviction that what seems the succession of thought is only the distribution of wholes into causal series.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
