The South American subcontinent supports one of the world's most diverse and
commercially very important ichthyofauna. In this context, the study of South American fish …

Members of the Diplostomoidea mature in amniotes and employ vertebrates, annelids and

Abstract The Diplostomidae Poirier, 1886 is a large, globally distributed family of digeneans
parasitic in intestines of their definitive hosts. Diplostomum and Tylodelphys spp. are broadly …

To identify trematode diversity and life-cycles in the sub-Arctic Lake Takvatn, Norway, we
characterised 120 trematode isolates from mollusc first intermediate hosts, metacercariae …

Higher systematics within the Digenea, Carus 1863 have been relatively stable since a
phylogenetic analysis of partial nuclear ribosomal markers (rDNA) led to the erection of the …

Despite the advances in our understanding of the ecological importance of parasites that we
have made in recent years, we are still far away from having a complete picture of the …
