Abstract | We report the first finding of Lymnaea cousini naturally infected with Fasciola hepatica in Ecuador. A sample of
70 snails was collected in April 2005 from a wetland located in a valley at approximately 3000 m a.s.l., near the
locality of Machachi, Pichincha Province. The prevalence of natural infection in L. cousini was 31.43%, which is
the highest value ever recorded for naturally infected lymnaeid species. | pt_BR |
