    2. LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Taxonomy of Dicrocoelium spp. The taxonomy of Dicrocoelium spp. (LA RUE, 1957) is as follows: Phylum Plathelminthes Superclass Trematoda Class Digenea Superorder Epitheliocystida Order Plagiorchiida Suborder Plagiorchiata Superfamily Plagiorchioidea Family Dicrocoeliidae Subfamily Dicrocoeliinae Genus Dicrocoelium 2.2 Species Dicrocoelium dendriticum (RUDOLPHI, 1819) is the species of Dicrocoelium with the widest distribution, found in a range from Portugal to central Asia and also in North America. D. hospes (LOOSS, 1907) is present in western, central and eastern Africa, while D. chinensis (TANG et al., 1978) is distributed in China, east Siberia and Japan. Further, D. suppereri (HINAIDY, 1983) and D. orientalis, (SUDARIKOV AND RYJIKOV, 1951) are morphologically identical with D. chinensis and are considered to be synonyms. Interestingly, D. suppereri has been recently found in a mufflon in Austria, far from localities where D. chinensis is usually reported. Possibly it was imported, and came to Europe with infected sika deer (Cervus nippon) in the 19th century. Other members of the genus Dicrocoelium are avian parasites. Dicrocoelium species differ in some morphological characteristics, geographic distribution and ecological features. 3 2.3 Morphology Dicrocoelium spp. (δικροσ: bifid; κοιλια: gut) are characterised by a lancet shaped body, with an oral and a ventral sucker. The body size is 5–10 mm in length and 2–3 mm in width, semitransparent and pied, with a black uterus and white vitellaria visible to the naked eye. The eggs are oval, dark brown, typically operculate, small (38– 45 µm x 22–30 µm), with two characteristic dark points (so called “eye spots”), and contain a miracidium (EUZÉBY, 1971).

The orthogonal development of the two flagella is followed by a flagellar rotation and their proximodistal fu- sion with the median cytoplasmic process. This process is accompanied by extension of both the mitochondrion and nucleus into the median cytoplasmic process. The two pairs of electron-dense attachment zones mark the lines where the proximodistal fusion of the median cytoplasmic process with the two flagella takes place. The intercentriolar body, previously undetermined inA. foliacea, is composed of three electron-dense and two electron-lucent plates. Also new for this species is the finding of electron-dense material in the apical region of the differentiation zone at the early stage of spermiogenesis, and the fact that two arching membranes appear at the base of the differentiation zone only when the two flagella rotate towards the median cytoplasmic process. The present data add more evidence for a close relationship between the Amphilinidea and the Eucestoda.

During a survey of helminth parasites of the brown ground snake, Atractus major Boulenger, 1894 (Serpentes: Dipsadidae) from Moyobamba, region of San Martin (northeastern Peru), a new species of Glossidiella Travassos, 1927 (Plagiorchiida: Plagiorchiidae) was found and is described herein based on morphological and ultrastructural data. The digeneans found in the lung were measured and drawings were made with a drawing tube. The ultrastructure was studied using scanning electron microscope. Glossidiella peruensis sp. nov. is easily distinguished from the type- and only species of the genus, Glossidiella ornata Travassos, 1927, by having an oblong cirrus sac (claviform in G.

Information regarding the molecular data of various species of the genus Pleurogenoides Travas- sos, 1921 is virtually lacking. This study addresses the application of molecular markers to validate the phylogenetic position of P. cyanophlycti and P. euphlycti. In the present study, two species P. cyanophlycti and P. euphlycti were collected between January 2016 to October 2017, infecting the freshwater frogs inhabiting the Western Ghats, India. In the present study, the two species were identifi ed morphologically and by PCR amplifi cation of the 28S ribosomal RNA gene. Phylogenetic tree results clearly demonstrate that both P. cyanophlycti and P. euphlycti belongs to the family Pleurogenidae Looss, 1899. Based on these results, we presented and discussed the phylogenetic relationships of P. cyanophlycti and P. euphlycti within family Pleurogenidae from India. Phylogenetic analyses showed that P.

A total of 118 fish in 7 species were examined by the artificial digestion method on March 2016. The metacercariae of 4 species of zoonotic trematodes, i.e., C. sinensis, Haplorchis pumilio, Haplorchis taichui, and Centrocestus formosanus, were detected. The metacercariae of C. sinensis were found in 62 (69.7%) out of 89 fish (5 species), and their intensity of infection was very high, 81.2 per fish infected.

However, in stained tis- sue sections prepared for light microscopy, taxonomic features will be missing, thus making parasite identification difficult. This work highlights the characteristic features of representative parasites in tissue sections to aid identification. The parasite examples discussed are derived from species af- fecting finfish, and predominantly include parasites associated with disease or those commonly observed as incidental findings in disease diagnostic cases. Emphasis is on protozoan and small metazoan parasites (such as Myxosporidia) because these are the organisms most likely to be missed or mis-diagnosed during gross examination. Figures are presented in colour to assist biologists and veterinarians who are required to assess host/parasite interactions by light microscopy.

Key words: Nevertheless, aspects of the biology of this cyclocoelid are still poorly understood. Herein, we Typhlocoelinae; life cycle; domestic waterfowl; report the finding of T. cucumerinum in definitive and intermediate hosts from an urban phylogeny waterbody of Brazil. The parasite was initially detected during the necropsy of domestic Muscovy ducks (Cairina moschata) found dead in the locality. Coproparasitological tests in Author for correspondence: Jordana C. A.
