Bridging knowledge gaps in two trematode life cycles: insights from southern African freshwater ecosystems [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Understanding and resolving trematode life cycles is increasingly recognised as an important objective in helminth research, as many species are known only from certain developmental stages or hosts.

Morphological and molecular assessment of muscle metacercariae infecting tench Tinca tinca from fish farms and wild populations in Germany [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Fish can be infected with metacercariae (the final larval stage) of different species of potentially zoonotic digenetic trematodes (flukes). The fish-borne zoonotic trematodes thus compromise food safety and present a major threat for human health ...

Metacercariae of Austrodiplostomum compactum (Trematoda, Diplostomidae) in non-native fish species in Brazil: a possible explanation for the high rate of parasitic infection [PDF]

Anais Da Academia Brasileira De Ciencias, 2020
Metacercariae of Diplostomidae are widely distributed in America and may cause diplostomiasis, an ocular disease in fishes. The aim of this study is to report the occurrence of metacercariae of Austrodiplostomum compactum in Plagioscion squamosissimus ...
