... birds, a new species of trematode genus Heterotestophyes gibsoni
sp. n. was recorded from the intestine of little tern (Sternula albifrons) collected from Jamshoro, Sindh, Pakistan. The
new species is characterized by having small body, maximum width attained at the level of mid body region and
twisted at the level of pharynx. Oral sucker terminal, rounded and broader than long. Esophagus long, intestinal
bifurcation is above the a...

...iate hosts for digenetic trematode cercariae. Digenean larvae were obtained from M. praemorsa snails that were collected from Palestine. Cercaria melanopsi palestinia I and III were identified as a xiphidiocercaria belonging to the microcotylae sub-group and as a microcercous cercaria, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses based on sequences of the ITS2 region of the nuclear rDNA revealed that C. melanopsi palestinia I belongs to the family ...

During this study, the fish weight (g) and length (mm) of 122 fish were measured. In addition, the distribution of M. heteranchorus and U. pictorum in each lamella of the gills and the distribution of D. spathaceum in the right and left eye lenses were evaluated. Two different algorithms (MAR...

The freshwater malacological information is sparse within Pakistan specifically in the foothills of Margalla hills. Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate the habitat preference of freshwater snails to environmental factors. However, only 3 species of snail were found from the 13 ...

...ere identified including trematode and acanthocephalan. Other helminths groups, such as cestodes and nematodes were not noted. These helminths infected the gut of Cyprinuscarpio including trematode and acanthocephalan. No additional organs were found to be infected with helminths parasites. Helminths prevalence were documented as 41% in September, 40% in August, 36% in October, 33% in June, September (30.76%) and April (25%)...

... and waterborne zoonotic trematode parasitic disease infection worldwide. However, yak’s fascioliasis is rarely reported on Tibetan Plateau. In this study, serological survey and associated risk factors of Fasciola hepatica (F. hepatica) infection in Tibetan yaks was investigated using an ELISA assay. The results showed that the 305/849 (35.92%) studied animals were sero-positive for F. hepatica with the further distri...

...dura cattles infected by trematode worms (Fasciola sp and Paramphistomum sp). The prevalence of gastrointestinal endoparasite was found as follows: Cooperia sp. 31%, Fasciola sp. 12%, Oesophagostomum sp. 6%, Moniezia sp. 4%, Paramphistomum sp. 2%, Capilaria sp. 2%, and Ostertagia sp. 2%. To sum up, endoparasite infection of cattle is common in PAPABARU. Studies found that the prevalence of endoparasite and geographical distribution are needed and effective fo...

...he overall prevalence of trematode was 49.58%, nematode was 57.86%, and protozoa was 9.1%. The infestation rate of the Strongylys group (45.4%) was dominant followed by Fasciola gigantica (24.79%), Paramphistomum spp. (24.79%), Neoascaris spp. (12.4%) and Eimeria (9.09 %). The parasitic infestation in cows was higher than in heifer, bull, and calf based on animal categories, and the animals within 2 years of age were more susceptible to parasitic infestation. ...

The results of 2015–2019 study period also compared with data obtained in 1996–1999 (first study period) and 2005–2010 (second study period). A total 36 helminth species parasitize common shrews during three research periods. ...

Overall, the total prevalence of helminth infection was 79.9% (183/229), of which most were nematodes (72.1%), with a mean (± standard deviation) burden of 7.41 ± 12.81 (ranging from 0 to 78) worms per chicken. The most common helminth species identified in the examined Thai indigenous chickens were nematodes H. gallinarum (70.3%) and A. galli (14.8%). A prevalence rate of 34.5% for cestodes was obs...
