AbstractMicrotrema gen. n. and Microtrema barusi sp. n. are described from the intestine of Prunella modularis in the Czech Republic. Genus and species have the following features: Body claviform, widest in region of ventral sucker. Tegument densely covered with tiny spines. Suckers small, widely separated. Oral sucker globular, subterminal. Ventral sucker globular, equatorial. Prepharynx very short or absent. Pharynx small, fine. Oesophagus divided into two short intestinal branches ending blindly anterior to testes. Testes globular, lateral, in region of ventral sucker. Vesicula seminalis small, genital pore in short distance before ventral sucker and opening of uterus. Bursa cirri and cirrus absent. Ovary globular, median, between testes. Mehlis’ gland long oval, posterior to ovary. Vitellarium weakly developed, in two lateral clusters composed of small follicles. Uterus in posterior part of body, with many eggs, covering vitellarium and partly ventral sucker. Excretory vesicle V-shaped, pore terminal.

ABSTRACTMesocoelium malayanum sp.n. is described from the frog Rana macrodon, in Malaysia. Elongate body, broader anteriorly, measuring 1·900 (1·679–2·070) mm long by 0·404 (0·380–0·437) wide, tegument aspinose oral sucker 0·212 (0·200–0·228) by 0·202 (0·191–0·205), acetabulum 0·141 (0·132–0·150) by 0·139 (0·123–0·146), prepharynx present, oesophagus 0·115 (0·096–0·137), caeca reaching posterior ⅓ of body, anterior testis 0·097 (0·087–0·110) by 0·091 (0·087–0·100) dorsal to acetabulum, posterior testis 0·094 (0·087–0·101) by 0·092 (0·091–0·100), cirrus pouch 0·121 (0·111–0·130) by 0·047 (0·041–0·055), genital pore at left of midline of oesophagus just anterior to intestinal bifurcation, ovary 0·110 (0·091–0·127) by 0·089 (0·085–0·096) on left of body and posterior to acetabulum, vitelline glands with single follicles extending from intestinal bifurcation to ends of caeca, excretory vesicle I-shaped and eggs 0·040 (0·037–0·046) by 0·023 (0·022–0·024). Although morphologically related to M. maroccanum and M. meggitti, M. malayanum is considered to be a new species.

Paramphistomum Cervi

The purpose of this study was to determine the kind of trematodes which infected the rumen and reticulum of goat slaughtered at RPH Pegirian Surabaya using digestive surgery method, and determine the prevalence result. 36 samples of rumen and reticulum were collected from RPH Pegirian from September - November 2017 then using digestive surgery to obtain fresh adult worms, afterwards using the Semichen-Acetic Carmine staining method to makes the object easy to identifying. The results showed that species was found on goat was Paramphistomum cervi and Cotylophoron cotylophorum, in the Paramphistomum cervi are several characters wich is oral sucker, genital pore, uterus, testis, ventral sucker and in Cotylophoron cotylophorum contain oral sucker, branched oesophagus, uterus, vitelin glands, testes , posterior sucker. 3 rumen positive trematodosis with prevalence of 8.33% Chi-square statistic test (p>0.05) showed no effect between goat species and Trematodosis prevalence, 20 kacang goat and 16 peranakan etawa goat found 2 positive kacang goat (10%) and 1 peranakan etawa goat positive (6.25%).

Gymnophallid metacercariae found in the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum (‘Banjirak’ in Korean) from Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do, Korea were morphologically and molecularly confirmed to be Parvatrema duboisi (Dollfus, 1923) Bartoli, 1974. The metacercariae were morphologically characterized by having a large oral sucker, small ventral sucker, genital pore some distance anterior to the ventral sucker, no ventral pit, and 1 compact or slightly lobed vitellarium, which were all compatible with P. duboisi. Some of the metacercariae were experimentally fed to mice, and adult flukes were recovered at day 7 post-infection. The morphology of the adult flukes was basically the same as that of the metacercariae except for the presence of uterine eggs; the uterus was filled with up to 40 eggs. The nucleotide sequences (1,193 bp) from ITS regions (ITS1, 5.8S rDNA, and ITS2) of the metacercariae showed 99.7% identity with P. duboisi and 75.7% identity with Gymnophalloides seoi deposited in GenBank. These results confirmed the presence of P. duboisi metacercariae in the Manila clam R. philippinarum in an estuary region of Gochang-gun, Korea.
