“…According toOlsen et al (2015), environmental variables such as wetlands, streams, and pastures were positively associated with F. hepatica in cattle. Marshes wetlands are known to have humid circumstances favourable for intermediate host snail survival and growth, host snail infection development, and transfer of free-living uke stages(Kuerpick et al 2013;Boray & Love 2007…”

Lymnaeid snails are vital in transmitting trematode cercariae as an intermediate host that can infect buffalo and other ruminants and humans, causing signi cant economic losses. The study aimed to conduct morphological and molecular identi cation of snails and cercariae collected from the selected buffalo farms under palm oil integration in Perak, Malaysia. A cross-sectional study was conducted, and 35 water were investigated for the presence or absence of snails. A total of 836 lymnaeid snails were collected from three marshes wetlands. To identify the snail family and species, morphological identi cation was performed on each snail's shell, and to identify trematode cercariae types; the crushing method was used to observe the cercarial stage inside each snail's body. In addition, the Internal Transcribed Spacer 2 (ITS2) region and Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) was used as the target gene to identify the snail species and cercarial types up to the species level. The result showed that the collected snails belong to the family Lymnaeidae and Radix rubiginosa species. The infection rate by cercarial emergence in snails was 8.73%. Five morphological cercarial types were observed which include: echinostome, xiphidiocercariae, gymnocephalous, brevifurcate-apharyngeate distome, and vivax. Using molecular methods, the identi ed cercariae belong to the three families, including Echinostomatidae, Plagiorchiidae, and Fasciolidae. This is the rst report on R. rubiginosa and different types of trematodes cercariae in buffalo farms under palm oil integration in Perak. Our nding con rmed that R. rubiginosa could serve as an intermediate host for a range of parasitic trematodes in Perak.
