Abstract Kingfishers (Alcedinidae Rafinesque) are common inhabitants of wetlands and are known to be definitive hosts to a wide range of digeneans that parasitize fish as second intermediate hosts. Among these digeneans, members of the Diplostomidae Poirier, 1886 (diplostomids) are particularly common.

Alaria nasuae (Trematoda: Diplostomidae) from Domestic Dogs
The Journal of Parasitology, 1989Two stray dogs were found naturally infected with adult Alaria nasuae in Tamaulipas, Mexico. This is the first report of this species from a domestic dog, the first report of it from Mexico, and the first time the species has been recorded since its original description.

Biology of a New Cercaria for Posthodiplostomum minimum (Trematoda: Diplostomidae)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1967Snails, Physa halei Lea, from Madison County, East Texas, shed strigeid cercariae in large numbers. Adult Posthodiplostomum minimum (MacCallum, 1921) Dubois, 1936, were recovered from chicks force-fed metacercariae obtained from both natural and experimental infections of fishes.

Chromosomal complements of Posthodiplostomum cuticola and P. brevicaudatum were studied using the air-drying technique and Giemsa staining. The diploid chromosome number for these species was 2n =20. The structure of karyotype of P. cuticola was: lst-5thA + 6th- 8th ST-SM + 9th SM + 10th SM-M.

Studies on the life-cycle of Uvulifer iruvettiensis sp. nov. (Digenea: Diplostomidae)
Acta Parasitologica, 2013AbstractThe life-cycle stages of a new species of Uvulifer, U. iruvettiensis sp. nov. infecting the white-throated kingfisher Halcyon smyrnensis (Linnaeus) in Kerala, India are described. The new species is described in detail, and compared with its related species.

Systematic Analysis of the Diplostomidae and Strigeidae (Trematoda)
The Journal of Parasitology, 1989A systematic analysis of the genera in the Diplostomidae and Strigeidae was made using the Proterodiplostomidae as the outgroup. The Proterodiplostomidae was the family with the greatest preponderance of primitive characters and its monophyly was supported by the unique paraprostate gland.

Effects of cadmium upon longevity of Diplostomum sp. (Trematoda: Diplostomidae) cercariae
Chemosphere, 2002Laboratory experiments were conducted to examine the impact of cadmium (Cd) on survival of Diplostomum sp. cercariae. Freshly emerged cercariae were exposed to Cd solutions at concentrations ranging between 0.2 and 200 microg/l. The mortality patterns and mean survival times (MSTs) of the exposed parasites were determined by the Kaplan-Meier estimator ...

Molecular prospecting for European Diplostomum (Digenea: Diplostomidae) reveals cryptic diversity
International Journal for Parasitology, 2013We believe this study is the first attempt to address molecular prospecting for species diversity of Diplostomum (Digenea: Diplostomidae) in Europe. A database linking sequences from the barcode region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) mitochondrial gene and from the internal transcribed spacer cluster (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of the rRNA gene was ...

Toxicity of cadmium and zinc to Diplostomum spathaceum (Trematoda: Diplostomidae) cercarial survival
International Journal for Parasitology, 2001The toxicity of cadmium and zinc at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10000 microg/l was investigated with cercariae of Diplostomum spathaceum at three temperatures (12, 20, 25 degrees C) and three levels of water hardness (distilled water, soft water, hard water).

Diplostomid digeneans are important parasites whose larval stages infect freshwater snails and fish as first and second intermediate hosts respectively. Diplostomid digeneans as adults are parasitic in many fish-eating birds and mammals. Our understanding of the species diversity of diplostomid digeneans remains incomplete, especially in the Indian sub-
