People living in Mesoamerica and what is now the eastern and southwestern United States used turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) as sources of meat, eggs, bones, and feathers. Turkey husbandry and domestication are confirmed in two of these regions (Mesoamerica and the American Southwest), but human-turkey interactions in Eastern North American (eastern United States and Canada) are not fully explored. We apply stable isotope (δ13C, δ15N) and ancient mitochondrial DNA analyses to archaeofaunal samples from seven sites in the southeastern United States to test whether turkeys were managed or captively reared. These combined data do not support prolonged or intensive captive rearing of turkeys, and evidence for less intensive management is ambiguous. More research is warranted to determine whether people managed turkeys in these areas, and whether this is generalizable. Determining whether turkeys were managed or reared in the southeastern United States helps define cultural and environmental factors related to turkey management or husbandry throughout North America. This inquiry contributes to discussion of the roles of intensified human-animal interactions in animal domestication.

Singhfilaria hayesi n. sp. from subcutaneous tissue of Meleagris gallopavo sylvestris of the southeastern United States is readily distinguished by its broad complex left spicule, cuticular markings, and two pairs of bulky male caudal papillae. Eufilariinae López-Neyra 1956 is considered a synonym of Lemdaninae López-Neyra 1956 and a key, with diagnoses and a list of species, is given to the following genera regarded as members of the Lemdaninae: Lemdana, Saurositus, Singhfilaria (= Lemdanella), Ameeria, Aproctiana, Sarconema, Eufilaria (= Eufilariella), and Chiropterofilaria. The following new combinations are proposed: Singhfilaria alii (Sultana, 1961) n. comb. for Lemdana alii; ?Singhfilaria dartovellei (Ezzat and Tadros, 1958) n. comb. for Lemdana dartovellei; Sarconema pyrrhurae (Freitas and Mendonça, 1952) n. comb. for Aprocta pyrrhurae; Eufilaria micropenis (Travassos, 1926) n. comb. for Lemdana micropenis; Eufilaria singhi (Sultana, 1961) n. comb. for Lemdana singhi. Eufilaria coua nom. nov. is proposed for Eufilaria singhi Chabaud, Brygoo, and Richard, 1964.
