A study of the infectivity of the cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma haematobium [PDF]
The effect of various factors on the infectivity of the cercariae of S. mansoni and S. haematobium were studied. It has clearly been shown that the infectivity of cercariae of both species is directly influenced by those factors ...

Abstract: Lethal Effect of some Stylet Cercariae on Various Fishes
Incidental to a study being conducted on the cercariae infesting the snails of Carrol Lake, Oneida County, Wisconsin, it has been found that certain Xiphidiocercariae, when in high concentrations, will kill fish of various species. Controlled experiments

ON TWO AMPHISTOME CERCARIAE FROM DISTRICT MEERUT
The present communication deals with a known and unknown amphistome cercariae from District Meerut. Cercaria baughi n.sp. was collected from Indoplanorbisexustus (Deshyaes) and characterized in having different shapes of eye spots, absence of crystalline

Research Notes: Experimental Infection with Strigoid Cercariae
During the summers of 1947 and 1948 strigeoid cercariae from Carrol Lake, Wisconsin were collected and identified by the late Dr. F. G. Brooks and turned over to the writer for use in the experimental infection of frog tadpoles and various fish.

Glycocalyx shedding by cercariae of bird schistosomes [PDF]
Trichobilharzia spp. are avian schistosomes related to medically important human parasites of the genus Schistosoma. Penetrating cercariae are well known as causative agent of cercarial dermatitis in humans.

The cysteine proteinases of Schistosoma mansoni cercariae
Based on substrate preferences, cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni were seen to express both cathepsin L and cathepsin B cysteine proteinases, although the former activity was many-fold greater.

Antiparasite defenses of fathead minnows exposed to trematode cercariae [PDF]
105 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm.Parasites exert substantial costs on their hosts. Thus, natural selection should favour behavioural defenses that reduce hosts’ exposure to parasites. This prediction has rarely been tested for aquatic hosts exposed to parasites.

Prevalence of Cercariae Infection in Snails From the Lymnaeidae and Physidae Families in Aquatic Regions of Guilan Province, Northern Iran, and the Effect of Some Physicochemical Parameters of Water on Snail Abundance and Infection Rate [PDF]
Background: Some freshwater snails are as intermediate hosts of human and animal parasitic trematode. Study on freshwater snails’ fauna and cercariae infection play important role to detect sources of infection.
