Chronological analysis of the damages caused by the metacercariae of Centrocestus formosanus in the gills of Cyprinus carpio and lesions caused by the adult flukes in Ardeola ralloides : An experimental study [PDF]
Centrocestus formosanus is a digenean that requires three host species to complete its life cycle. This study was conducted to observe the damage caused by two life stages of the C. formosanus on its host species.

Anthelmintic Effect of Bacillus thuringiensis Strains against the Gill Fish Trematode Centrocestus formosanus. [PDF]
Parasitic agents, such as helminths, are the most important biotic factors affecting aquaculture, and the fluke Centrocestus formosanus is considered to be highly pathogenic in various fish species. There have been efforts to control this parasite with chemical helminthicides, but these efforts have had unsuccessful results.
