abstract         heavy metals have raised one of the most important problems in ecology and organisms life especially human being and animals. a variety of indicators including tissues of fish, birds and sediment have been used recently to measure the aquatic pollution with heavy metals. the aim of this study was to search the published articles in iran and the world on the role of helminthic p...

background: the performance and parasitology of semi-intensively managed west african dwarf (wad) lambs were evaluated following exposure to gastrointestinal helminth infected paddock and varied protein-energy feeds. methods: twenty four lambs obtained from the department of animal breeding and genetics and brought to directorate of university farm (dufarm) of federal university of agriculture ...

Many new marine parasite species are added every year. Still, in some places, mainly tropical regions, parasites have been little studied. An exhaustive review of the indexed publications where reported environments Costa Rica was carried out. The history research on this region is also reviewed. A total 147 as 61 different hosts. Most these correspond to trematodes and cestodes, found digestiv...

Taxonomic names and phylogenetic hypotheses are indispensable tools for modern biological research, both basic and applied. Like all disciplines, parasitology suffers from the 'taxonomic impediment' - a global shortage of professional taxonomists and systematists. Only a fraction of the species of parasites on this planet have been identified, and the evolutionary relationships of only a minori...
