taxonomic structure of digenea in wild ducks (anatinae) from west pomerania.parasitic fauna of birds connected with water environment, including digeneans, is relatively well researched in poland. the exception, however, is west pomerania, where those birds were not frequent objects of parasitological research until recently. the purpose of this work is to determine the taxonomic structure of the digenea, parasitising wild ducks living in west pomerania. the research material was 124 individuals of wild anatinae (anseriformes) belonging to 8 species: anas strepera, a. c ...200818702318
[digenea in melanitta fusca and m. nigra (mergini, anseriformes) from the baltic sea].ten individuals of melanitta fusca and m. nigra (mergini, anseriformes) each, wintering at the polish baltic coast, were examined for the presence of parasites. m. fusca yielded a total of 197 helminths, including 20 digeneans and 177 nematodes. the m. nigra individuals examined were found to support 923 helminths, including 62 digeneans, 860 nematodes, and a single cestode. m. fusca were hosts to the digeneans: cryptocotyle concava, notocotylus attenuatus and psilostomum brevicolle. digenea fou ...200818702322
digenean communities in the tufted duck [aythya fuligula (l., 1758)] and greater scaup [a. marila (l., 1761)] wintering in the north-west of poland.a total of 124 specimens of the tufted duck, aythya fuligula, and 63 greater scaup, a. marila, were examined for digenean parasites. both duck species, which overwinter in a coastal lake connected with the southern baltic (north-west poland) were found to support amblosoma exile, cyathocotyle prussica, paracoenogonimus ovatus, australapatemon minor, cotylurus cornutus, echinoparyphium recurvatum, echinostoma revolutum and notocotylus attenuatus. in addition, the tufted duck hosted hypoderaeum co ...201322677200
digenean larvae--the cause and beneficiaries of the changes in host snails' thermal behavior.parasite-induced changes in host's thermal preferences not only can be interpreted as a physiological defense response of the host but also can represent a pathological manifestation of the parasite. both may become established in host-parasite relationships if they are beneficial for at least one of the counterparts. this study investigates parasite-induced changes in the thermoregulatory behavior of first intermediate hosts of digenea (i.e. lymnaea stagnalis and planorbarius corneus), infected ...201525563607
