Natural remedies and practices against internal parasites in ruminants could provide a solution. However, a lot of knowledge on effective herbs has been lost in the Netherlands, which hampers implementation in Dutch agriculture. This study aimed to identify promising natural remedies and practices to control internal parasites in ruminants. In this report, the most promising natural remedies and practices against Haemonchus contortus (barber's pole worm) and Fasciola hepatica (liver fluke) were researched by literature study and interviews. Herbs which were shown to have significant effects in vivo and which are applicable in Dutch agriculture systems are considered promising herbs. It is advised to increase species richness by implementing Lotus corniculatus (birdsfoot trefoil), Cichorium intybus L. (chicory) and Onobrychis viciifolia (sainfoin) to control Haemonchus contortus, and Fumaria parviflora (fineleaf fumitory) to control Fasciola hepatica, in the pasture to allow self- medication. Moreover, these herbs keep their anthelmintic properties when processed into hay or silage, which increases their availability throughout the year. Additionally, Cymbopogon citratus (lemongrass) essential oil against Haemonchus contortus and Moringa oleifera (drumstick tree) and Nigella sativa (black cumin) against Fasciola hepatica could be imported and added to the feed. Additionally, dried and fresh herbs could be combined into mixtures and be applied when infection rates are causing a burden to the animals. We recommend looking internationally, for example at the Chinese herb mixtures. Especially the Quchongxiehuosan and Ganzhisan mixture looked promising against Haemonchus contortus and Fasciola hepatica, respectively. Furthermore, applyingmedicinal herbs in combination with other alternative management methods could give more profound anthelmintic effects. 3 Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................... 3 Introduction ............................................................................................................................... 6 Methods ..................................................................................................................................... 7 Lifecycle and pathology of important livestock parasites .......................................................... 8 Haemonchus contortus (barber's pole worm) ....................................................................... 8 Introduction ....................................................................................................................... 8 Pathology ........................................................................................................................... 8 Life cycle ............................................................................................................................. 9 Current management ....................................................................................................... 10 Fasciola hepatica (common liver fluke) ............................................................................... 11 Introduction ..................................................................................................................... 11 Pathology ......................................................................................................................... 11 Life cycle ........................................................................................................................... 12 Current management ....................................................................................................... 13 Overview remedies .................................................................................................................. 14 Effective compounds in herbs .............................................................................................. 14 Tannins ............................................................................................................................. 14 Herbal medicines against Haemonchus contortus in sheep ................................................ 15 Promising herbs against Haemonchus contortus ................................................................. 20 Artemisia absinthium (wormwood) and Malva sylvestris (mallow) ................................ 20 Cichorium intybus L.

Echinostome trematode parasites have complex, multiple-host life-cycles, often involving migratory bird definitive hosts, thus leading to widespread distributions. Here, we examined the echinostome diversity in freshwater ecosystems at high latitude locations in Iceland, Finland, Ireland and Alaska (USA). We report 14 echinostome species identified morphologically and molecularly from analyses of nad1 and 28S rDNA sequence data. We found echinostomes parasitising snails of 11 species from the families Lymnaeidae, Planorbidae, Physidae and Valvatidae.

Environmental monitoring regularly detects neonicotinoids at concentrations that may cause negative impacts on molluscs. The toxicity of neonicotinoids to some non-target invertebrates has been established; however, informa- tion on mollusc species is limited. Molluscs are likely to be exposed to various concentrations of neonicotinoids in the soil, food and water, which could increase their vulnerability to other sources of mortality and cause accidental exposure of other organisms higher in the food chain. This review examines the impacts of various concentrations of neonicotinoids on molluscs, including behavioural, physiological and biochemical responses. The review also identifies knowledge gaps and provides recommendations for future studies, to ensure a more comprehensive understanding of impacts from neonicotinoid exposure to molluscs.

Received 12 July, 2016; Accepted 15 October, 2016 This research was carried out to assess the plant species diversity in Nasarawa State, Nigeria with a view to obtain an accurate database and inventory of the naturally occurring plant species in the state for reference and research purposes. This preliminary report covers a total of nine local government areas in the state. The work involved intensive survey and visits to the sample sites for this exercise. The diversity status of each plant and the distribution across the state were also determined using standard method. A total of number of 244 plant species belonging to 57 plant families were identified out of which the families, Asteraceae, Poaceae, Combretaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Moraceae and Papilionaceae were the most highly distributed across the entire study area. There was great extent of diversity in the distribution of plants across all the areas sampled with the highest in Wamba LGA. The most predominant food crop across the state was Sorgum spp. followed by Sesame indica and then Zea mays.

Pugsley (Fumariaceae), known as “Fumitory”, is an annual herb found as a common weed all over the plains of India and Pakistan. Plant is used widely used in Unani and Ayurvedic system of medicine. Plant is used in isolation as well as in polyherbal formulations. Fumaria indica is used in Dr. Gowher Guna Department of Botany, Islamia College aches and pains, diarrhoea, fever, influenza, liver complaints, vomiting, constipation, dyspepsia, blood of Science and Commerce, Hawal, purification, leucoderma, anthelmintic, diuretic, diaphoretic and, in combination with black pepper, for Srinagar-190002, India jaundice. The present review reveals various pharmacological activities of the plant which might be helpful in further investigations of the plant at molecular and phytochemical level for drug formulations against various diseases. Keywords: Fumaria indica, Botanical description, Pharmacology. INTRODUCTION Fumaria species are also commonly called “fumitory”, “earth smoke”, “beggary”, “fumus”, “fumittery” or “wax dolls” in English. These are annual weeds, growing wildly in plains and lower hills of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkey, Iran, Central Asia, North Dakota and Colorado. Fumaria indica (Haussk) Pugsley (synonyms: F. parviflora, F. vaillantii), is widely used in Ayurvedic system as well as unani system of medicine. In Ayurvedic system it is referred by the name of ‘Pitpapra’ and in Unani system it is known by the name of ‘Shahtra’.
