- Since temperature is a key condition in the initiation of cercarial emergence, the objective of the work reported here was to evaluate the effect of that variable on the shedding of two morphologic and taxonomic types of cercariae. Bioassays were accordingly performed with snails naturally infected with either monostome or pleurolophocercous cercariae because those two cercarial types were found to be the most prevalent in the environment under study. The snails were placed in 6-ml circular plastic dishes with soft plastic stoppers containing 3 ml of reconstituted water and then sequentially exposed for 24 h to a 14:10-h light:dark cycle at 20, 25, or 30 °C. The data were analyzed at a significance level of p <0.05 by means of the InfoStat program. The optimum temperature for cercarial emergence was typically in the range of 25 °C and decreased significantly at 30 °C. We observed no significant difference in the number of cercariae emerging between the two morphologic types.
Considerando que la temperatura es un factor clave en la emergencia de cercarias, el objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el efecto de ésta variable sobre la emergencia de dos tipos morfológicos de cercarias. Los bioensayos se realizaron con caracoles naturalmente infectados con cercarias de los tipos monostoma o pleurolofocerca, debido a que estos dos tipos fueron los más prevalentes en el ambiente en estudio. Los caracoles fueron ubicados en cápsulas plásticas de 6 ml conteniendo 3 ml de agua reconstituida, y entonces fueron secuencialmente expuestos por 24 h con un ciclo 14:10 h luz:oscuridad a 20, 25 y 30 °C. Los datos fueron analizados a un nivel de signifi cación de p<0.05 con el programa InfoStat. Los resultados mostraron que la temperatura óptima de la emergencia de cercarias estuvo en el rango de 25 °C, y disminuyó signifi cativamente a 30 °C. Se observó también que no existía diferencia signifi cativa en el número de cercarias emergentes entre los dos tipos morfológicos.
