Echinostoma cinetorchis
Encyclopedia
Echinostoma cinetorchis is a species of human intestinal fluke
, a trematode in the family Echinostomatidae.
Experimentally induced infection of host species that occur in Korea in a laboratory setting include:
From miracidia to cercaria, i.e. as a primary intermediate host:
From cercaria to metacercaria, i.e. as a second intermediate host:
Trematoda
Trematoda is a class within the phylum Platyhelminthes that contains two groups of parasitic flatworms, commonly referred to as "flukes".-Taxonomy and biodiversity:...
, a trematode in the family Echinostomatidae.
Hosts
Hosts of Echinostoma cinetorchis include:- Cipangopaludina chinensis (Gray, 1834) - Chinese mystery snail, an intermediate hostIntermediate hostA secondary host or intermediate host is a host that harbors the parasite only for a short transition period, during which some developmental stage is completed. For trypanosomes, the cause of sleeping sickness, humans are the primary host, while the tsetse fly is the secondary host...
