Using heatmaps, CU Boulder researchers find that certain parasites congregate in certain parts of amphibians’ bodies, often to dire physical consequences Trematodes, also known as flukes, are a class ...

Researchers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego discovered that a snail species carrying human-infecting flatworms known as trematodes is widespread in California. The scientists ...

Scientists have predicted that the rate of foodborne trematode infections will remain stable up to 2030. Foodborne trematodiases, including clonorchiasis, fascioliasis, fasciolopsiasis, ...

More than 90 percent of popular Southern California freshwater game fish sampled in a new study contained invasive worms capable of infecting humans, scientists warn. The parasites — two species of ...

Molecular phylogenetics has transformed our understanding of trematodes, a class of parasitic flatworms with complex life cycles that exploit molluscan, vertebrate and sometimes avian hosts. By ...

Trematodes, also known as flukes, are a class of parasitic flatworms with intricate lifecycles. This makes them interesting to scientists, but they are also significant to both human health and ...
