Suitability of six lymnaeid snails for infection with Fasciola hepatica
Veterinary Parasitology, 1987The suitability of Fossaria (Bakerilymnaea) cubensis and Pseudosuccinea columella from Louisiana as intermediate hosts for Fasciola hepatica was compared to P. columella and Stagnicola elodes from Ann Arbor, MI, S. attenuata from Hidalgo, Mexico, Lymnaea gedrosiana from Iran and L. natalensis from Senegal.

Rapid identification of lymnaeid snails and their infection with Fasciola gigantica in Thailand
Experimental Parasitology, 2010Freshwater snails of the family Lymnaeidae are the intermediate hosts of the liver fluke Fasciola worldwide. While distinct species have been identified at the molecular level in other parts of the world such data have not been published for Thailand. In this study we collected Lymnaeidae from different localities across Thailand and analyzed their 16S

The delimitation of cryptic species within the genus Lymnaea, which are the main vectors of fascioliasis, remains a topic of controversy. An analysis of genetic variability based on 12 enzyme loci revealed different fixed alleles at 9 loci between two sympatric samples of Lymnaea viatrix at the type locality in Lima, Peru.

Reviewing lymnaeid vectors of fascioliasis by ribosomal DNA sequence analyses
Journal of Helminthology, 2005AbstractSnails of the family Lymnaeidae are of great parasitological importance due to the numerous helminth species they transmit, mainly trematodiases (such as fascioliasis) of considerable medical and veterinary impact. The present knowledge of the genetics and host–parasite relationships of this gastropod group is far from adequate. Fascioliasis is

Larval productivity of Fasciola gigantica in two lymnaeid snails
Journal of Helminthology, 2004AbstractTwo groups of Galba truncatula and two groups of Lymnaea natalensis were experimentally infected with Fasciola gigantica to determine if snail species had an influence on the redial burden and cercarial shedding of this trematode when snails of both species were infected with the same isolate of miracidia.

Diversity of trematode cercariae among naturally infected lymnaeid snails from Phayao, Thailand
Parasitology Research, 2023Lymnaeids are aquatic snails playing an important role in the transmission of many parasitic trematode species of veterinary and medical importance. In this study, we assessed the presence of cercarial flukes in naturally infected lymnaeid snails from Phayao province, Thailand, and determined the species diversity of both the intermediate snail hosts ...

Experimental Infection of Several Lymnaeid Snails with Heterobilharzia americana
The Journal of Parasitology, 1967Heterobilharziasis seems to have a limited geographic range restricted to the coastal lands of the Gulf of Mexico and the Carolinas. Its snail hosts in this region are the lymnaeids Fossaria cubensis and Pseudosuccinea columella. In the present study seven species of lymnaeid snails from out- side the known zone of distribution of heterobilharziasis (a

ABSTRACTThe effects of water temperature on the ability of Diplostomum spathaceum miracida to infect and establish patent infections in Lymnaea peregra and L. stagnalis were investigated. Snails were infected over a range of temperatures (6–20°C) and kept thereafter at 20°C or were infected at 20°C and kept at either 14, 20, or 25°C.

Observations on the host-parasite relations between Echinostoma revolutum and lymnaeid snails.
Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology, 1976Echinostoma revolutum from Taiwan was studied in lymneid snails at 29 +/- 0.5 degrees C. Given 3-5 miracidia, 95% of Lymnaea ollula and 40% of Lymnaea swinhoei became positive; the prepatent periods were 18 and 25 days, respectively. The following are based on the observations in Lymnaea ollula: The time required for miracidial penetration was about ...

The small subunit (18S) rRNA gene sequences of the lymnaeid morphs I and II (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Basommatophora: Lymnaeidae) transmitting human fascioliasis in the high endemic zone of the northern Bolivian Altiplano and of Lymnaea cubensis from Mexico and Guadeloupe island (Caribbean) have been obtained by direct polymerase chain reaction PCR cycle ...
