[microphallidae (digenea) from southern africa, parasites of charadrii (aves). second note].	the authors present new geographical and diagnostic information for microphallids (trematoda: digenea) from the coast of namibia (southern africa): maritrema eroliae yamaguti, 1939 from charadrius marginatus vieillot; odhneria odhneri travassos, 1921 from arenaria interpres l.; microphallus bilobatus cable, connor & balling, 1960 from c. marginatus; and levinseniella propinqua jägerskiöld, 1907 from c. marginatus and a. interpres. these are new geographical and host records. the position and var ...	2004	14755173
paragonimus westermani and some rare intestinal trematodes recovered from raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus) introduced recently on yakushima island, japan.	helminth parasites were collected from 9 raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus) and 2 japanese weasels (mustela itatsi sho) on yakushima island, japan. the former carnivore was introduced to this world natural heritage area presumably within the last two decades, expanding its population thence, although detailed process(es) of the introduction is unknown. the collected trematodes from raccoon dogs included the triploid form of paragonimus westermani, brachylaima tokudai, maritrema e ...	2006	16891780
[contribution to the study of the microphallidae travassos, 1920 (trematoda). xxx. a propose of some species described in japan by s. yamaguti. c. maritrema eroliae and the genus pseudospelotrema].		2007	1163938
ribosomal dna sequence characterization of maritrema cf. eroliae yamaguti, 1939 (digenea: microphallidae) and its life cycle.	the microphallid maritrema eroliae parasitizes shore birds in marine ecosystems while its larval stages infect mud snails and crustacean hosts. because it is difficult to morphologically distinguish between larvae of m. eroliae and other microphallids co-occurring in the same habitat, partial nucleotide sequences of the ribosomal dna (rdna), including the 28s and 18s in addition to complete sequences of its1 and its2, were scrutinized. this analysis was used to establish the snail-crab link in t ...	2011	21787215
two new species of maritrema nicoll, 1907 (digenea: microphallidae) from new zealand: morphological and molecular characterisation.	two new species of the microphallid genus maritrema (maritrema) nicoll, 1907 are described from freshwaters in the south island of new zealand. maritrema deblocki n. sp. occurs as an adult in the mallard anas platyrhynchos (l.); maritrema poulini n. sp. is found as sporocysts/cercariae in potamopyrgus antipodarum (gray) and as metacercariae in two species of amphipod and two species of isopod. we use morphological and molecular characterisation to distinguish between the two species, and compare ...	2014	24562817
pcr-based molecular discrimination between maritrema eroliae and probolocoryphe uca (digenea: microphallidae) in kuwait bay.	microphallid trematodes are common parasites in marine snails and crustacean hosts at kuwait bay. the larval stages of two microphallids, maritrema eroliae and probolocoryphe uca, are difficult to differentiate morphologically. in this study, two pcr-based techniques were established for quick and accurate discrimination between the larval stages of the two microphallid species, employing restriction fragment length polymorphism (pcr-rflp) and species-specific primers. both techniques utilized n ...	2014	23290423
