| the life cycle of clinostomum complanatum rudolphi, 1814 (digenea, clinostomidae) on the floodplain of the high paraná river, brazil. | the life cycle of the digenetic trematode clinostomum complanatum was studied on the floodplain of the high paraná river, brazil. sampling was done between june 1999 and june 2000. the mollusc biomphalaria peregrina was the first intermediate host with a prevalence of infection of 0.75%. the fish loricariichthys platymetopon, hoplosternum littorale, parauchenipterus galeatus, hoplias malabaricus and loricaria sp. were second intermediate hosts, with the prevalence varying from 2.45% ( h. malabar ... | 2003 | 12658465 |
| parasitism of cichlasoma paranaense kullander, 1983 and gymnotus carapo linnaeus, 1814 by clinostomum complanatum (rudolphi, 1814) metacercariae in the taquari river. | the infection, known as yellow spot disease, produced by metacercariae of clinostomum spp. was studied in fishes of the taquari river, located in jataizinho, paraná state, brazil. a total of 1,582 specimens, belonging to 36 species, were collected between march 1999 and april 2001. yellow spot disease was observed only in gymnotus carapo linnaeus, 1814 (gymnotiformes, gymnotidae) and cichlasoma paranaense kullander, 1983 (perciformes, cichlidae). this parasitism was generated by metacercariae of ... | 2005 | 16341430 |
| ecology of clinostomum complanatum rudolphi, 1814 (trematoda: clinostomidae) infecting fish from the floodplain of the high paraná river, brazil. | the prevalence of clinostomum complanatum rudolphi, 1814 (digenea, clinostomidae) in fishes loricariichthys platymetopon, parauchenipterus galeatus and hoplosternum littorale, which are second intermediate hosts, was studied at the floodplain of the high paraná river, brazil. season (alternation flood-drought), habitat (lentic and semi-lotic), and sex were not related to its prevalence. for l. platymetopon, the immature and smaller fish had the lowest prevalence, whilst the opposite was observed ... | 2006 | 16738894 |
