Fresh Water Snail

About 100 specimens of the fresh-water snail, Melanoides tuberculatus (Muller), collected on 30th March, 1962 from “Kukrail”, a tributory of river Gomati, were examined for larval infection. One specimen was found infected with a unique cercaria belonging to the genus Transversotrema. The writer subsequently attempted to collect this cercaria from the same place and 1750 specimens of the said host were examined in the following years (1962–67) without success. Further, a large number of specimens of fishes of the genera Channa Gronov; Colisa Cuv. and Val.; Xenentodon Regan and Nundus Cuv. and Val., common in the tributary were also examined for metacercarial infection of this cercaria but none were found.
