Potencialidad de Pseudosuccinea columella (Say, 1817) (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Lymnaeidae) en la transmisión de la fascioliasis humana en República Dominicana

Ciencia y Salud, 2019
Introducción: en el paisaje epidemiológico de la fascioliasis humana, dos aspectos son de fundamental importancia: a) presencia de hospederos definitivos (especialmente ganado bovino y humanos) parasitados con adultos del tremátodo y; b) presencia de ...

Integrative taxonomy: combining molecular and morphological characteristics to identify Lymnaea (Galba) cubensis, intermediate host of Fasciola hepatica

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2021
Despite the epidemiological importance of the Lymnaeidae family regarding transmission of Fasciola hepatica, knowledge about the diversity and distribution of these molluscs and the role of each species in the expansion of fasciolosis remains sparse ...

First report of larval stages ofFasciola hepaticain a wild population ofPseudosuccinea columellafrom Cuba and the Caribbean [PDF]

Journal of Helminthology, 2010
AbstractA wild population of the lymnaeid snailPseudosuccinea columellainfected by larval stages ofFasciola hepaticawas discovered in the Pinar del Río Province, Cuba. One of 100 snails was infected in a rice culture field. This is the first time this species has been found acting as intermediate host ofF. hepaticaunder natural conditions, not only for

Cannibalism and competition can increase parasite abundance for parasites with complex life history strategies

Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Ecological interactions among hosts are critical to consider when predicting disease dynamics. Most theory predicts that intraguild predation (IGP) and cannibalism negatively impact parasite populations, but this is based primarily on assumptions of simple or single‐host life cycles.

First molecular characterization of Galba neotropica in Uruguay

FAVE Sección Ciencias Veterinarias, 2016
Until recently, it was believed that only two lymnaeid species (i.e. Galba viatrix and Pseudosuccinea columella) occurred in Uruguay. However, based on a molecular approach, an additional species Galba cubensis, was recently discovered.

Chemical composition and effect of essential oils of Thymus vulgaris and Origanum vulgare on adults and ovigerous masses of Pseudosuccinea columella

, 2022
Abstract Fasciolosis is a worldwide distribution zoonosis that causes great damage in ruminant breeding and has the aquatic mollusk Pseudosuccinea columella as an intermediate host. Synthetic molluscicides are the most used for control; however, they are harmful to fauna and flora. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of essential
