The outer covering of digenetic trematodes undergoes a number of changes in the course of the life cycle in adaptation to parasitism and to the host-seeking requirements of the various stages . Using Schistosoma mansoni as a model, I review morphological, physiological, and cytochemical features of
Larval digenetic trematodes commonly castrate their first intermediate hosts, and should therefore impose strong selection on the timing and mode of host reproduction. Here we examine spatial variation in infection by trematodes in the freshwater snail Potamopyrgus antipodarum. Snails were collected
