Unravelling another mystery: Parasite escape and host‐switching vary spatially in non‐indigenous populations of Japanese mystery snails

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 1316-1332, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Due to anthropogenic mechanisms, global freshwater biodiversity is declining, and non‐indigenous species are consistently cited as a major threat to native ecosystems. In particular, exotic freshwater gastropods and their parasites have invaded ecosystems through deliberate introductions and/or accidental transfer.

The transcriptomic analysis of Planorbarius corneus hemocytes (Gastropoda) naturally infected with Bilharziella polonica (Schistosomatidae).

open access: yesDevelopmental and Comparative Immunology, 2022
The study of molluscan innate immunity is essential for understanding the evolution of the immune system. An advance in the knowledge of their immune system can be achieved by increasing the number of model species.

A large‐scale epidemiological investigation on trematode infections in small ruminants in Bangladesh

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 1219-1228, May 2022., 2022
In Bangladesh, nearly 40% small ruminants were infected with snail borne trematodes (SBT). Small ruminants were usually affected by a variety of SBT. Three potential factors were detected as risk factors for SBT infections in small ruminants. Abstract Background The important trematode species in small ruminants: Paramphistomum sp., Fasciola spp.

Morphological, Behavioral, and Molecular Characterization of Avian Schistosomes (Digenea: Schistosomatidae) in the Native Snail Chilina dombeyana (Chilinidae) from Southern Chile

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Avian schistosomes are blood flukes parasitizing aquatic birds and snails, which are responsible for a zoonotic disease known as cercarial dermatitis, a hypersensitive reaction associated to the cutaneous penetration of furcocercariae.
