Life history studies of heterophyid trematodes in the Neotropical region: Ascocotyle (Leighia) hadra sp. n.

The life cycle of Ascocotyle (Leighia) hadra n. sp. was experimentally reproduced, starting from cercariae from naturally infected Littoridina parchappei, collected from Los Ranchos stream, near Mercedes city, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Metacercariae were found encysted in the liver and mesen...
