“…Philodina megalotrocha also has been recorded as living on bryozoans (May, 1989). It should be mentioned that Mossallam, Amer and Abou-Ei-Naga (2013) reported relationship between Philodina sp. and snail Biomphalaria alexandrina.…”

Here we report a rotifer-ciliate-gastropod hyperepibiosis in freshwater canal, Goa, India. A rotifer Philodina cf. megalotrocha Ehrenberg, 1832 was found attached on the colony of Epistylis plicatilis Ehrenberg, 1838 which was epibiont on gastropod Pomacea bridgesi (Reeve, 1856) . This is first report of a member of Epistylis as an epibiont on Pomacea bridgesi. Raport o hiperepibiozie wrotków, orzęsków i ślimaków znalezionych na ślimaku (Mollusca) z Goa w Indiach Słowa kluczowe hiperepibioza, orzęski, wrotki, ślimak, słodkowodne, Indie Streszczenie Artykuł dotyczy doniesienia o hiperepibiozie wrotków, orzęsków i ślimaków w kanale słodkowodnym w Goa w Indiach. Wrotek Philodina cf. megalotrocha Ehrenberg, 1832 został znaleziony w kolonii Epistylis plicatilis Ehrenberg, 1838, która była epibiontem na ślimaku Pomacea bridgesi (Reeve, 1856). Jest to pierwsze stwierdzenie Epistylis plicatilis jako epibionta na Pomacea bridgesi.

“…On the other hand, attachment of rotifers to snails inhibits development of schistosomes within them and reduces the viability of cercariae. 39,40 In the case of inhibited development of schistosomes within snails, the availability of molecular monitoring of infected snails at prepatency 35 will enable the detection of factors affecting host capacity in the laboratory and in nature. In practice, cercarial shedding is the indicator of the actual snail-to-man transmission.…”

Large-scale control efforts in sub-Saharan Africa may leave long-term lingering transmission. Large-scale screening of snail infection prevalence by loop-mediated isothermal amplification will enable accurate determination of man-to-snail transmission, as well as the effects of biota in snail habitat on host capacity and thus on snail-to-man transmission. Next-generation sequencing will enable identification of gut content of snails and thus their feeding preferences in hot spots and in non-hot spots, as well as for identification of attractive vegetation types for attracting snails to molluscicides.
