Surface ultrastructure of Pygidiopsis summa (Digenea: Heterophyidae) adult flukes [PDF]
A scanning electron microscopic study was performed on the surface ultrastructure of Pygidiopsis summa (Digenea: Heterophyidae) adults. Metacercariae were collected from gills and muscles of mullets (Mugil cephalus) caught in a known endemic area, and adult flukes were harvested from dogs after 8 weeks of experimental infection.

Stictodora sp. (Trematoda: Heterophyidae) recovered from a man in Korea [PDF]
Two adult specimens of heterophyid fluke, which belong to the genus Stictodora, were collected from the stool of a 24-year old man after chemotherapy. The flukes were morphologically characterized by their small body size (0.90~0.98 mm long and 0.38 mm wide) and peculiar structure of ventrogenital sac with armed gonotyl (with about 12~15 spines) not ...

Prevention and Control of Fish-borne Zoonotic Trematodes in Fish Nurseries, Vietnam
Worldwide, >18 million persons were infected with fish-borne zoonotic trematodes in 2002. To evaluate the effectiveness of interventions for reducing prevalence and intensity of fish-borne zoonotic trematode infections in juvenile fish, we compared ...

The results of this work suggest that interspecific competition can occur in species‐poor, nonsaturated communities among specialist dominant species. Our analyses suggest also that aggregation is an important factor to determine local richness of parasites in fish populations and that intraspecific aggregation allows the coexistence of species in the ...

Surface ultrastructure of the adult stage of Acanthotrema felis (Trematoda: Heterophyidae) [PDF]
The surface ultrastructure of Acanthotrema felis (Trematoda: Heterophyidae) adults, recovered from a kitten experimentally infected with the metacercariae, was observed using a scanning electron microscope. The worm was leaf-like, ventrally concave and covered with scale-like multi-pointed tegumental spines.

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is the most cultured and available fish for Kenyan consumers, and therefore, any tilapine disease deprives them the valuable source of protein. Nile tilapia farm was diagnosed with severe concurrent black spot disease and multiple bacteriosis using gross lesions and parasitological, histopathology, and standard ...

Surface ultrastructure of Heterophyes nocens (Trematoda: Heterophyidae)
The surface ultrastructure of Heterophyes nocens (Trematoda: Heterophyidae) was studied by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The adult worms were recovered from experimentally infected cats and from a naturally infected patient. They were leaf-like, ventrally concave, and ovoid or pyriform in shape.
