Kinetics of echinostoma caproni (trematoda: echinostomatidae) antigens in feces and serum of experimentally infected hamsters and rats [PDF]
This study reports on the kinetics of antibody production to Echinostoma caproni and the dynamics of antigens in feces and sera in 2 experimental hosts (hamsters and rats) that display different degrees of susceptibility with this echinostome ...

This manuscript represents a large, single, collective examination of larval trematodes from snail hosts, using molecular markers and phylogenetic methods. We contribute 1,091 mitochondrial sequences (cox1 and nad1) that represent 79 species from 23 genera and eight families.

Reinvestigation of the sperm ultrastructure of Hypoderaeum conoideum (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) [PDF]
Spermatological characteristics of the digenean Hypoderaeum conoideum (Echinostomatidae) collected from Anas platyrhynchos in the Lac d'Annecy (France) were reinvestigated using transmission electron microscopy. The previous study on this species only describes the presence of two axonemes of unequal lengths, a mitochondrion, a posterior nucleus, and ...

New cryptic species of the ‘revolutum’ group of Echinostoma (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) revealed by molecular and morphological data [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The digenean species of Echinostoma (Echinostomatidae) with 37 collar spines that comprise the so-called ‘revolutum’ species complex, qualify as cryptic due to the interspecific homogeneity of characters used to differentiate species.

A survey of cercariae and metacercariae (Trematoda, Digenea) from the great pond snail (Lymnaea stagnalis) in Central Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, South-East Germany, Poland and Slovak Republic) is presented, based on a study of 3,628 snails examined

We investigated how embryonic exposure to different cold‐temperature regimes affected compensatory larval development and growth, larval susceptibility to a common contaminant, and larval susceptibility to parasites. We found: no evidence of compensatory development or growth, tadpoles exposed to the cold‐press treatment were more susceptible to NaCl ...

The authors tested 10 candidate functions representing the transmission of trematode parasites to amphibian hosts using laboratory experiments varying the duration of exposure, numbers of parasites, numbers of hosts and parasite density. Nonlinear functions outperformed classical frequency‐ and density‐dependent transmission functions and may provide ...
