Recherches expérimentales sur le cycle biologique d’Opisthorchis chabaudi n. sp. Description de l’adulte
Experimental research on the life cycle of Opisthorchis chabaudi n. sp. Description of the adult
Laboratoire de Parasitologie, Université du Bénin, B.P. 1515, Lomé, Togo.
O. chabaudi n. sp. est obtenu expérimentalement à partir de cercaires, produites par des rédies, et émises naturellement par le Mollusque prosobranche Gabbia neumanni (Martens, 1898). La cercaire s’enkyste chez plusieurs têtards d’Amphibiens. L’adulte se développe dans les voies biliaires du Chat domestique. O. chabaudi se caractérise essentiellement par sa silhouette, ainsi que par la forme et la situation de ses appareils reproducteurs. La possibilité d’infestation humaine accidentelle n’est pas écartée.
Abstract
O. chabaudi n. sp. is experimentally obtained from cercariae, born into rediae and naturally produced by the snail Gabbia neumanni (Martens, 1898). Cercariae encyst into some tadpoles. The adulte grows into the biliary ducts of the Cat. O. chabaudi is mainly characterized by its outline, therefore by the shape and position of its reproductive systems. Accidental human contamination possibility is not denied.
