Trematodes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia: emerging patterns of diversity and richness in coral reef fishes [PDF]
, 2014 The Great Barrier Reef holds the richest array of marine life found anywhere in Australia, including a diverse and fascinating parasite fauna. Members of one group, the trematodes, occur as sexually mature adult worms in almost all Great Barrier Reef ...

Rare inventory of trematode diversity in a protected natural reserve
Scientific Reports, 2021 In the face of ongoing habitat degradation and the biodiversity crisis, natural reserves are important refuges for wildlife. Since most free-living organisms serve as hosts to parasites, the diverse communities in protected areas can be expected to ...

Stunting of the penis in Heleobia parchappii (Mollusca: Cochliopidae) and its relationship with parasitism [PDF]
, 2017 Penis anatomy is used to discriminate species of gastropods belonging to the family Cochliopidae; however, this characteristic may be affected by the presence of parasites.

Thermodynamics of trematode infectivity
Parasitology, 2014 SUMMARY Temperature is an important factor influencing the biology of organisms and is intrinsically linked to climate change. The establishment of trematodes in target hosts is potentially susceptible to temperature changes effecting parasite infectivity or host susceptibility, and therefore in order to develop predictive frameworks of host ...

Can the studies at a spatial scale of 100s meters detect the spatiotemporal fluctuations of a parasite assemblage? [PDF]
, 2013 The importance of small-scale heterogeneity in local factors which overrides that of larger-scales factors, suggest that local factors play a major role in determining the richness and prevalence of larval digeneans in intertidal gastropods.

Oxfendazole flukicidal activity in pigs [PDF]
, 2014 Although oxfendazole (OFZ) is a well know broad-spectrum benzimidazole anthelmintic, the assessment of its potential trematodicidal activity remains unexplored.

Cercariae (Digenea: Strigeidae, Diplostomidae) in Biomphalaria straminea (Planorbidae) from a rice field in Northeastern Argentina [PDF]
, 2017 The rice fields can provide habitats for many species of aquatic invertebrates, as insects, molluscs, crustaceans; and vertebrates, as fish, amphibians, reptiles and birds, which may act as hosts in the life cycles of digenean parasites. In this context,

Intestinal Trematode Infections
, 2019 Intestinal trematodes are among the most common types of parasitic worms. About 76 species belonging to 14 families have been recorded infecting humans. Infection commonly occurs when humans eat raw or undercooked foods that contain the infective metacercariae.

Ceylon Journal of Science, 2018 Trematode infections are known to induce malformations and increase mortality in amphibians. However, not all the larval trematodes induce effects on the host. Nine types of cercariae (A-I) belonging to five morphotypes (oculopleurolophocercous, distome,
