Abstract:
Cercari and mollusk trematodes (Gastrpoda, Pulmonata) in freshwater biocenoses of Uzbekistan. Shakarbayev U.A., Akramova F.D., Norkobilov B.T., Azimov D.A. – Some features of the fauna cercariae trematodes were studied, gastropods are produced by molluskss - Lymnaeidae Rafinesque, 1815, Planorbidae Rafinesque 1815, Physidae Fitziger, 1833 and Melanoididae Müller, 1774. In the reservoirs of the rivers Syr Darya, Amu Darya (within Uzbekistan) and Zarafshan, natural infection of trematode larvae was observed in 15 species of mollusks, Lymnaea(8 species), Planorbis(1 species), Gyraulus(2 species), Anisus (2 species), Physa(1 species), Costatella (1 species) and Melanoides(1 species). In total were found 27 species of cercariae belonging to the trematodes of 11 families of Fasciolidae, Echinostomidae, Philophthalmidae, Paramphistomidae, Gastrothylacidae, Notocotylidae, Plagiorchidae, Sanguinicolidae, Strigeidae, Diplostomidae, schistosomatidae and Bilharziellidae.
