The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 587-611, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.

Great minds map alike: Citizen and expert distribution models of schistosome snail hosts in rural west Uganda

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Citizen scientists and an expert jointly monitor Biomphalaria snails (the intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni) in rural areas of southwest Uganda, generating over 4500 georeferenced records. By comparing expert‐ and citizen‐based distribution models under perfect and imperfect detection, we demonstrate that site type and NDVI consistently ...

Situation and Cercarial Infection of Freshwater Mollusk from Sirindhorn Reservoir, Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2019
Background: Most of trematodes need snails to complete their life cycles. Consequently freshwater snails are served as intermediate hosts of many parasites worldwide.

Trematode Infection Prevalence Increases With Snail Richness: Observations From a 4‐Year Study of Snail–Trematode Interactions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We find that higher snail richness correlated with increased overall and generalist trematode infections, while specialist infections showed a similar but nonsignificant trend. The study also highlighted potential host‐switching events and the impact of long‐term sampling on parasite communities, emphasizing the need for continued monitoring of host ...

Radix natalensis (Gastropoda: Lymnaeidae), a potential intermediate host of Fasciola hepatica in Egypt

open access: yesParasite, 2010
Experimental infections of Egyptian Radix natalensis with French miracidia of Fasciola hepatica were carried out to determine if this snail might act as an intermediate host in the life cycle of this digenean in Egypt. Single exposures of R.

Phytotherapy of chlorophyllin exposed Lymnaea acuminata: A new biotechnological tool for fasciolosis control

open access: yesParasite Epidemiology and Control, 2016
Phytotherapy of chlorophyllin formulations against Fasciola gigantica infected Lymnaea acuminata under sunlight exposure was highly toxic against redia and cercaria larvae.

A global meta‐analysis of ecological functions and regulating ecosystem services of freshwater bivalves

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 10, Page 2982-2997, October 2025.
Abstract Freshwater bivalves are globally distributed, diverse, and common in benthic communities. Many taxa, particularly in the most species‐rich order, Unionida, are declining due to anthropogenic stressors, while a small number of non‐native species have become increasingly abundant and widespread, commonly replacing native bivalve assemblages.

Morphology, biology and taxonomy of Dendritobilharzia loossi Skrjabin, 1924 (Trematoda: Bilharziellidae), a parasite of Pelecanus onocrotalus (Pelecanidae) and Anas plathyrinchos (Anatidae)

open access: yesParasite, 2011
Life cycles of Dendritobilharzia loossi Skrjabin, 1924, a parasite of waterbirds, and its morphobiological traits are studied and described. Mollusks Anisus spirorbis, the infection rate of which in natural environments reaches 1.3-1.9%, were recorded as

Diplostomum‐Induced Sac Formation in Lenses of Ameiurus Bullheads: A Host Defence Response?

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Trematodes of the genus Diplostomum (Diplostomidae) are widely distributed and significant fish pathogens known for causing a range of negative effects. Any mechanism that protects the host from the parasite thus represents an evolutionary advantage.
