Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fascioliasis is an important and neglected disease of humans and other mammals, caused by trematodes of the genus Fasciola. Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica are valid species that infect humans and animals, but the specific status of Fasciola sp. ('intermediate form') is unclear. METHODS: Single specimens inferred to represent Fasciola sp. ('intermediate form'; Heilongjiang) and F. gigantica...
