Morphological Observations of Adult Schistosoma Spindale

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 6

Abstract

Schistosoma spindale is a parasite inhabiting the portal and mesenteric veins of Bubalus bubalis. The tegumental surfaces of adult S. spindale collected from naturally infected Bubulus bubulo were studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy. The inner surface of the male oral sucker possesses many spines. The ventral sucker is a fairly large protrusible organ and is infundibular in form with its margin more or less wavy. It is cup shaped and borne on a peduncle. The ventral sucker possesses spines. The width of the male and female is different at different regions. The lining of the gynecophoric canal is densely spined. The tegument of the female is similar to that of the male. The tegument of both sexes is devoid of spines.
