Abstract excerpt

A comparative morphometric study identified host-related variations in Heterophyes heterophyes. In one study, variations in adult H. heterophyes obtained from different definitive hosts were examined. Significant differences were in size and dimensions of body organs of adults collected from dogs, cats and albino-rats experimentally infected with encysted metacercariae (EMC) from mullet (Mugil cephalus)....
