Identification and distribution of Echinostoma lindoense, E. audyi and E. revolutum (Trematoda; Echinostomatidae).
The closely related Echinostoma lindoense, E. audyi and E. revolutum can be differentiated by morphological characteristics of their adults and cercariae. We have found E. lindoense and E. audyi in Southeast and Southwest Asia and Central Europe and the former species also in South America. However, using the morphological characteristics described by Beaver (1937) for E. revolutum which is assumed to be cosmopolitan, we did not find this species in these regions.
