Bulinus snails in the Lake Victoria Basin in Kenya: Systematics and their role as hosts for schistosomes
The planorbid gastropod genus Bulinus consists of 38 species that vary in their ability to vector Schistosoma haematobium (the causative agent of human urogenital schistosomiasis), other Schistosoma species, and non-schistosome trematodes. Relying on sequence-based identifications of bulinids (parti...
