Notocotylus biomphalariae n. sp. (Digenea: Notocotylidae)from Biomphalaria peregrina (Gastropoda: Pulmonata) in Patagonia, Argentina

Systematic Parasitology, 2005
A new species of Notocotylus was found parasiting a freshwater pulmonate snail, Biomphalaria peregrina. Naturally infected snails were collected from two temporary ponds in the Nahuel Huapí National Park in Patagonia. The characteristics of the larval stages are presented. Experimental adults were recovered from the intestinal caeca of ducks and chicks.

Larval Digenean Community Parasitizing the Freshwater Snail, Biomphalaria peregrina (Pulmonata: Planorbidae), From a Temporary Pond in Patagonia, Argentina

Journal of Parasitology, 2010
Knowledge of population dynamics of parasites in freshwater snails from South America is scarce. The objective of the present study was to describe the infection dynamics of larval digeneans in the planorbid snail, Biomphalaria peregrina , during 2 sampling periods in a Patagonian temporary pond. In total, 1,003 snails were examined.

Larval digenean communities in Biomphalaria species in two contrasting wetlands from South America.

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2018
A key factor in the colonization probabilities of parasites is the host's characteristic habitat. Considering that rice fields are simple habitats compared with natural wetlands, we comparatively analyzed the composition of the cercariae communities in ...

Genetic characterisation of the intermediate hosts of schistosomiasis in its southern distribution limit in South America

, 2020
Schistosomiasis is a tropical disease caused by the digenean parasite Schistosoma mansoni. In South America it is transmitted to humans via freshwater snails of the genus Biomphalaria. In a global warming scenario, disease range expansions to subtropical
