Development of Schistosoma mansoni in Biomphalaria tenagophila, Biomphalaria straminea and Biomphalaria glabrata [PDF]
Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1995 A comparative study of the development of Schistosoma mansoni during the intra-molluscan phase was made by means of histological sections of Biomphalaria tenagophila, B. straminea and B. glabrata from Brazil. Two hundred snails of each species were individually exposed to 50 miracidia of the S. mansoni, AL line.

Determinação do crescimento populacional de Biomphalaria glabrata e Biomphalaria tenagophila (Mollusca, Planorbidae) [PDF]
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 1971 Durante um período de 6 meses os autores estudaram, comparativamente, o crescimento populacional das espécies B. glabrata e B. tenagophila. Houve um desenvolvimento inicial, significativamente maior, de população de B. glabrata. Após terem alcançado um nível crítico de saturação, o número de exemplares das populações decresceu, sendo que, após um breve
