Recent range expansion of an intermediate host for animal schistosome parasites in the Indo-Australian Archipelago: phylogeography of the freshwater gastropod Indoplanorbis exustus in South and Southeast Asia [PDF]

, 2017
Background: The planorbid snail Indoplanorbis exustus is the sole intermediate host for the Schistosoma indicum species group, trematode parasites responsible for cattle schistosomiasis and human cercarial dermatitis.

Phylogeny of freshwater viviparid snails in Japan [PDF]

Journal of Molluscan Studies, 2015
We document extensive incongruence between molecular phylogeny and the current taxonomy of the freshwater gastropod family Viviparidae in Japan. A phylogeny based on the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I and 16S rRNA genes for East Asian viviparids comprises three major clades, the two largest of which are composed primarily of paraphyletic or

Transcriptional responses of Biomphalaria pfeifferi and Schistosoma mansoni following exposure to niclosamide, with evidence for a synergistic effect on snails following exposure to both stressors. [PDF]

, 2019
BackgroundSchistosomiasis is one of the world's most common NTDs. Successful control operations often target snail vectors with the molluscicide niclosamide.

Glabralysins, potential New β-pore-forming toxin family members from the schistosomiasis vector snail biomphalaria glabrata [PDF]

, 2020
Biomphalaria glabrata is a freshwater Planorbidae snail. In its environment, this mollusk faces numerous microorganisms or pathogens, and has developed sophisticated innate immune mechanisms to survive.

The threat of native molluscs by the New Zealand mud – snail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum (gray) = Угроза для местных моллюсков со стороны новозеландского слизня [PDF]

, 2002
Potamopyrgus antipodarum has been introduced to brackish and fresh waters of Europe probably in the first half of XIXth century, when the regular clipper lines have connected from 1840 the British Isles with New Zealand.

The first freshwater molluscs from Wrangel Island, Arctic Russia [PDF]

Polar Research, 2015
The first finding of a freshwater snail, Sibirenauta sibiricus (Westerlund, 1877), in one of the lakes on Wrangel Island (north-eastern Russia) is reported. No freshwater mollusc species have hitherto been known from this island.

Tolerance to air exposure of the New Zealand mudsnail Potamopyrgus antipodarum (Hydrobiidae, Mollusca) as a prerequisite to survival in overland translocations [PDF]

, 2013
Spreading throughout a new ecosystem is the last step of an exotic species to become invasive. In the case of invasive aquatic molluscs, tolerance to air exposure is one of the main mechanisms allowing overland translocation and spreading.
