title: [Cercarial chaetotaxy of Echinostoma revolutum (Froelich, 1802) and E. echinatum (Zeder, 1803) (Trematoda, Echinostomatidae)].
abstract: The life-cycles of Echinostoma revolutum and E. echinatum were carried out by using cercariae emitted by naturally infected Molluscs. E. revolutum strain was issued from Lymnaea auricularia, E. echinatum from Lymnaea truncatula and Planorbis planorbis, Planorbarius corneus produced an Echinostome which may possibly be E. echinatum or another species E. sp. Metacercarial stages and adults were obtained from laboratory experimental hosts. None of these adult Echinostomes displayed well-defined morphological differences: nevertheless their respective larval stages exhibited discrepancies used for species diagnosis. Cercarial chaetotaxy is given for every batch and compared with that of other species described as E. audyi, E. lindoense and E. caproni; discriminating features are discussed.
