[Morphological peculiarities of schistosomatid cercariae of Trichobilharzia cf. ocellata group occuring in Moscow and Saint-Petersburg populations].
Morphology of schistosomatid cercariae of the genus Trichobilharzia (ocellata group) is described based on original and reference data. The material (Trichobilharzia cercariae) was collected in 1999-2000 from naturally 'infected snails Lymnaea stagnalis from Moscow and Saint-Petersburg megalopolises. The more accurate flame cell formula for these cercariae, as well as some aspects of chaetotaxy and eye morphology are given. The differences between cercariae from these regions were found. Based on a comparison of nef data with the reference data, it was found that the cercariae examined differ from those from the Central Europe.
