Evaluation of terrestrial gastropods as possible intermediate hosts of Gurltia paralysans in southern Chile

Sepúlveda-García, Paulina; Gómez, Marcelo; Moroni, Manuel; Muñoz, Pamela; Müller, Ananda.
Rev. bras. parasitol. vet; 30 (1), 2021
Abstract Gurltia paralysans is the causal agent of gurltiosis in domestic cats in South America. Although the life cycle of G. paralysans is unknown, it is thought that gastropods could act as intermediate hosts (IHs), as is the case for several nematodes in the Angiostrongylidae family. The aim of this ...

Gastropods as intermediate hosts of Angiostrongylus spp. in the Americas: bioecological characteristics and geographical distribution

Valente, Romina; Robles, Maria del Rosario; Diaz, Julia Inés.
Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz; 115 (), 2020
BACKGROUND Intermediate hosts are key organisms in maintaining parasite life cycles, because they can act as amplifiers in the transmission from natural reservoirs to humans. One of the most important groups of intermediate hosts for zoonotic nematode infections are gastropods,slugs and snails. These ar...

Abstract Angiostrongylus vasorum is a pulmonary artery parasite of domestic and wild canid. On molluscs, intermediate host, first stage larvae (L1) are found after the first day of infection, in the 8th L2 and in the 30 th L3. It was evaluated L1, L2 and L3 recovered by Baermann technique from Achatina f...
