Short description Morphology
Length: 0.13 - 0.31 cm; cyst 0.3 cm. Minuscule to tiny; oval fluke has a relatively small, simple rhynchus. Ear-like anterior projections of the body occur on either side of the rhynchus. The eggs do not occur in the anterior part of the body. Positions of the testes and ovary: vary considerably (Ref. 359).
Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the class Trematoda are parasitic, thus requires a host to survive. Life cycle: Eggs are passed on to the feces of the hosts. Embryos hatch into miracidia and penetrate the tissues of snails where they further undergo three stages: sporocysts
