From coast to interior: trematodes completing freshwater life cycles are dominant in gulls recorded inland

Parasitology
Large gulls (Laridae) have expanded from coastal regions into inland Central Europe, where they increasingly exploit fishponds, landfills, and urban habitats.

One Health monitoring reveals invasive freshwater snail species, new records, and undescribed parasite diversity in Zimbabwe

Parasites & Vectors
Background Snail-borne trematodes afflict humans, livestock, and wildlife. Recognizing their zoonotic potential and possible hybridization, a One Health approach is essential for effective control.

Intermediate insights: tracing trematodes infecting amphibians via their first intermediate snail hosts

Parasites & Vectors
Background Amphibians are a prime example of the global biodiversity crisis, as they represent the most threatened group of vertebrates. Yet, amphibian macroparasites remain one of the most poorly described groups of parasites, with the majority of ...

Parasites of a keystone megaherbivore: insights into trematode life cycles and biological invasions in the Greater Kruger ecosystem

Parasitology
The common hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) is a keystone megaherbivore endemic to sub-Saharan Africa. Despite this ecological importance, the species is listed as Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to habitat loss ...

The abundance of snail hosts mediates the effects of antagonist interactions between trematodes on the transmission of human schistosomes

Infectious Diseases of Poverty
Background Combating infectious diseases and halting biodiversity loss are intertwined challenges crucial to ensure global health. Biodiversity can constrain the spread of vector-borne pathogens circulation, necessitating a deeper understanding of ...

Hydropower reservoir regions as potential hotspots of trematode transmission in Vietnam: a knowledge, attitudes and practices study

Parasitology
This mixed-methods study integrates quantitative parasitological surveys with qualitative knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) assessments to evaluate trematode transmission patterns and describe human behaviour relevant to transmission among ...

Echinostomes and Other Intestinal Trematode Infections

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.
