[Scott Barlow @BarlowBio]

Grateful to start my RA work in Vellore, India. Trapping rodents and searching for “chigger” mites with Ricketsiall bacterial infections. Any tips on dealing with extreme heat are very welcome !

@johnarcher088 In Anglesey ! Comparing two sister Littorina species for reproductive isolation and chromosomal inversions , healthy snails with no parasites so far :(

@RobertGittings congrats Rob , its citymapper time !

Been afflicted with the parasite known as Everton FC for the last 26 years now. Symptoms - lethargy, disappointment and constant underachievement. No sign of a cure as yet.

@BSPparasitology I’m on the lookout for a hard to find book , British Freshwater Cercariae by P. Nasir (1984). No trace online, described cercariae found in Britain up to 1974 - any help would be much appreciated.

Bilharziella polonica Trematoda cercariae we collected from Ramshorn snails at #Knowsleysafaripark , I can’t be the only one :0

[Scott Barlow @BarlowBio]

Infected and shedding Cotylurus sp. cercariae (Trematoda larva stage) - morphologically ID’ed , waiting back for molecular barcoding …….

Great ramshorn aquatic snail (Planorbanius corneus) , collected from Knowsley Safari Park.

We are very lucky to work with veterinarian colleagues at @KnowsleySafari to help check their beautiful grounds for snails-borne diseases to keep their wonderful animals healthy #Onehealth @LSTMMScStudents
