eng Abstract:
The influence of water temperature on cercarial emission of three trematode species parasitising freshwater first intermediate hosts, was studied in laboratory conditions: Echinoparyphium aconiatum from Lymnaea stagnalis; Neoglyphe locellus from Planorbarius corneus; and Echinostoma miyagawai from Planorbis planorbis. The study provided evidence for increase in cercarial emission with temperature increase and revealed both interspecific and intraspecific variations.
