Abstract: Dues noves localitzacions per a Espanya de Bulinus truncatus (Audouin, 1827) (Gastropoda, Planorbidae), hoste intermediari de la Schistosomiasis urinaria
Durant l’any 2014, els autors han trobat dues noves poblacions de Bulinus truncatus a Espanya. En una, la llacuna de Villena (Alacant), que va ser dessecada al comencament del segle XIX, nomes hi van trobar conquilles, mentre que a l’altra, situada a El Ejido (Almeria), hi van trobar milers d’exemplars vius. L’enclavament de Villena te un gran interes biogeografic perque enllaca les poblacions catalanes amb les andaluses ates que fins ara no se’n coneixia la presencia ni a Murcia ni a la Comunitat Valenciana. La poblacio d’Almeria ha estat objecte d’un estudi conquiliologic i molecular (gen cox1 de l’ADN mitocondrial) que ha revelat un 100% d’homologia amb altres poblacions de B. truncatus les sequencies de les quals estan disponibles al GenBank. La troballa d’Almeria presenta un gran interes davant la possible arribada a Espanya de la Schistosomiasis urinaria i l’establiment d’una transmissio autoctona, tal com ja ha succeit en altres paisos europeus en el passat i recentment.

TL;DR: Six xiphidiocercariae are described from seven Egyptian snails, includes Cleopatra bulimoides, Malanoides tuberculata, Lymnaea cailliaudi, Bulinus truncatus, Biomphlaria alexandrina and Lanistes carinatus collected from Giza and Qualiobyia.
Abstract: Six xiphidiocercariae are described from seven Egyptian snails, includes Cleopatra bulimoides, Malanoides tuberculata, Lymnaea cailliaudi, Bulinus truncatus, Biomphlaria alexandrina and Lanistes carinatus collected from Giza (Abou Rawash) and Qualiobyia (Qualiuob). Details are presented on the morphology, behavior of the cercariae, as well as other larval stages within the snails, with discussion and comparison between the previously described cercariae.

TL;DR: The Warburg's manometric technique was used to measure the rate of oxygen consumption of the second generation of laboratory-reared snails, Biomphalaria alexandrina and Bulinus truncatus at two temperatures of 25° and 30°C to clarify the metabolism of both schistosome-infected and uninfected snails.
Abstract: The Warburg's manometric technique was used to measure the rate of oxygen consumption of the second generation of laboratory-reared snails, Biomphalaria alexandrina and Bulinus truncatus at two temperatures of 25° and 30°C. The individual weight of the experimental snails ranged between 40 and 78 mg for B. alexandrina, between 60 and 90 mg for B. truncatus.
