Intensity of trematode metacercariae in cyprinoid fish in Chiang Mal Province, Northern Thailand

Intensity of trematode metacercariae in cyprinoid fish in Chiang Mal Province, Northern Thailand

The intensity of infection of trematode metacercariae was determined in five species of cyprinoid fish collected from Mae Ngud reservoir, Chiang Mai Province. These species were Thynnichthys thynnoides, Puntioplites proctozysron, Hampala macrolepidota, Puntius leiacanthus and Puntius gonionotus. T....
