Fishborne Zoonotic Trematodes Transmitted by Melanoides tuberculata Snails, Peru
We investigated the transmission of the fishborne trematodes Centrocestus formosanus and Haplorchis pumilio by Melanoides tuberculata snails in Peru. We report on results of experimental, morphological, and molecular approaches and discuss the potential risk for future human cases, given the existence of food habits in the country involving the ingestion of raw fish.
متن کاملParasite-induced variation in host morphology: brain-encysting trematodes in fathead minnows.
Metacercariae of the trematode Ornithodiplostomum ptychocheilus cause a conspicuous enlargement of the cranium of juvenile fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas). Minnows sampled from 2 naturally infected ponds in northern Alberta, Canada, had 12% higher and 7% wider craniums compared to fish from an adjacent, uninfected pond. We tested the prediction that cranial distortion was caused by encyst...

متن کاملLarval stages of digenetic trematodes in Melanopsis praemorsa snails from freshwater bodies in Palestine.
OBJECTIVE To detect the species of larval trematodes (cercariae) in Melanopsis praemorsa snails from 5 different fresh water bodies in Palestine. METHODS A total of 1 880 Melanopsis praemorsa snails were collected from different fresh water bodies in Palestine from October, 2008 to November, 2010. Cercariae in Melanopsis praemorsa snails were obtained by lighting and crushing methods. The beh...
