This book:
- Provides classification based on morphological characters to enable identification of all the digenean parasites
- Authors include specialists from the UK, USA, Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria and India
This is the second of three volumes of Keys to the Trematoda, a series on the systematics and identification
of the Class Trematoda. The book presents the taxa in the Order Echinostomida and some of those in the Order
Plagiorchiida, with keys for their identification at the superfamily, family, subfamily and generic levels. The keys
are based on critical examination of specimens by subject experts, and generic diagnoses are accompanied by
illustrations of important morphological characters. This volume includes seven echinostomidan superfamilies
(the echinostomatoids, haploporoids, haplosplanchnoids, heronimoids, microscaphidioids, paramphistomatoids
and pronocephaloids) and two plagiorchiidan superfamilies (the allocreadioids and lepocreadioids).
The first volume covered the Subclass Aspidogastrea and Order Strigeida, while the third volume, due to
be published in 2006, will cover the remaining members of the Plagiorchiida.
Readership: Parasitologists involved in identification and research in medical and veterinary helminthology
