| [trematode parasites of italian bats]. | data are presented on bat trematodes in italy, whose previous list included only the following five species: plagiorchis vespertilionis, plagiorchis asper, mesotretes peregrinus, prosthodendrium chilostomum, prosthodendrium longiforme. between 1945 and 1981, 289 bats were examined belonging to 13 species. a total of twelve trematode species were identified, nine of which are recorded for the first time in italy: lecithodendrium linstowi, lecithodendrium granulosum, lecithodendrium rotundum, pros ... | 1995 | 8778660 |
| composition and structure of helminth communities in two populations of pipistrellus pipistrellus (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) from spain. | the community composition and structure of helminths of pipistrellus pipistrellus (schreber, 1774) from two widely separated spanish localities, el saler (n = 42) and the san pedro pothole (n = 34), were determined and compared. five species of trematodes, plagiorchis (plagiorchis) sp., lecithodendrium (lecithodendrium) linstowi dollfus, 1931, prosthodendrium (prosthodendrium) sp., pycnoporus heteroporus (dujardin, 1845) and parabascus semisquamosus (braun, 1900), and one species of cestode, hym ... | 2001 | 11437129 |
| the taxonomic identity and phylogenetic relationships of cercaria pugnax and c. helvetica xii (digenea: lecitho-dendriidae) based on morphological and molecular data. | the present study analysed the taxonomic status and phylogenetic relationships of two species of xiphidiocercariae of the 'microcotylae' group, cercaria pugnax la valette st. george, 1855, from viviparus viviparus (linnaeus) in the ukraine and cercaria helvetica xii dubois, 1928 from bithynia tentaculata (linnaeus) in lithuania. molecular phylogenetic analyses based on sequences of the its2 region and partial 28s gene of the nuclear rdna revealed that both these xiphidiocercariae belong to the l ... | 2015 | 25960547 |
| gastrointestinal helminths of pipistrelle bats (pipistrellus pipistrellus/pipistrellus pygmaeus) (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) of england. | although bats are one of the most successful and diverse of mammalian orders, studies that focus upon bat endoparasites are limited. to further knowledge of bat parasitology, pipistrelle bats (pipistrellus pipistrellus and p. pygmaeus) were acquired from across the greater manchester and lancashire region of england and examined for gastrointestinal helminths using morphological and molecular analyses. sixty-eight of 90 adult/juvenile bats (76% prevalence) were infected with at least 1 species o ... | 2012 | 22217158 |
