Abstract

This study experimentally proves the pathogenicity of Echinostoma caproni metacercariae for Biomphalaria pfeifferi molluscs. The study investigated snails infected and uninfected with E. caproni redia. To slow down the rate of accumulation of metacercariae in aquaria, the density of cercariae was artificially reduced. The study suggests that the high pathogenicity of metacercariae in the experiment might be attributed to the laboratory conditions, while this effect is less pronounced in natural habitats.
