To investigate the prevalence of trematode Aspidogastrea in freshwater mussels in Anhui Province, China.
The freshwater mussels living in different water areas within Anhui territory were harvested and dissected from April to May, 2015. Then the flukes were collected from the pericardial cavities of the clams into a petri dish containing small amount of saline. After rinsing, the flukes were transferred into a bottle containing 70% ethanol for following identification by staining of the specimens prepared as previous protocol.
A total of 3 007 calms in 12 species, including (603), (90), (150), (250), (47), (60), (350), (100), (150), (567), (550) and (90) were dissected, in which 1 467 mussels were infected with the trematode Aspidogastrea, with an infection rate of 48.79% (1 467/3 007). Totally, 7 306 flukes belonging to 3 genera under the subclass of Aspidogastrea were isolated. These trematodes were genera of , and . The infection density was from 1 to 128 capita for individual positive clam, with a mean infectiosity of 4.98 (7306/1467) for each mussel.
The freshwater bivalves living in different water areas in Anhui Province are infected with the trematode Aspidogastrea. These flukes were identified as sp. sp. and sp. belonging to subclass Aspidogastridae of family Aspidogastrea.
调查中国安徽省淡水蚌类中阿斯皮多吸虫的感染率。
于2015年4月至5月采集安徽省不同水域的淡水蚌，进行解剖。然后从蚌的心包腔中收集吸虫，放入装有少量生理盐水的培养皿中。冲洗后，将吸虫转移至装有70%乙醇的瓶中，按照之前的方案制备标本进行染色以便后续鉴定。
共解剖了12种3007只蚌，包括（603只）、（90只）、（150只）、（250只）、（47只）、（60只）、（350只）、（100只）、（150只）、（567只）、（550只）和（90只），其中1467只蚌感染了阿斯皮多吸虫，感染率为48.79%（1467/3007）。共分离出属于阿斯皮多吸虫亚纲3个属的7306条吸虫。这些吸虫分别为属、属和属。单个阳性蚌的感染密度为1至128条/只，每只蚌的平均感染度为4.98（7306/1467）。
安徽省不同水域的淡水双壳贝类感染了阿斯皮多吸虫。这些吸虫被鉴定为属于阿斯皮多吸虫科阿斯皮多吸虫亚纲的种、种和种。
