New intermediate hosts in the life cycle of Zygocotyle lunata in South America
Biomphalaria peregrina was found to be naturally infected with cercariae of Zygocotyle lunata in a pond of the Zoological Garden of Buenos Aires. Mice and chicks were fed metacercariae and gravid adults recovered. Eggs recovered from mice feces were used for experimental infections. Laboratory-reare...
