Members of the genus Trichobilharzia are parasitic in visceral or nasal body parts of their avian hosts. The examination of water snails in South Bohemia revealed a schistosome infection in Radix peregra snails. The experimental infection of ducklings (Anas platyrhynchos, Cairina moschata) confirmed that a new Trichobilharzia species--T. regenti n. sp.--was found. The adults, eggs and larvae (miracidia and cercariae) of the species were morphologically characterized. The adult occupy the nasal blood vessels where they lay the eggs; the miracidia hatch from the eggs directly in the tissue and leave the host during drinking/feeding of the infected birds.
毛毕吸虫属的成员寄生于其禽类宿主的内脏或鼻腔部位。对波希米亚南部的淡水螺进行检查时，在静水椎实螺中发现了血吸虫感染。对雏鸭（绿头鸭、疣鼻栖鸭）进行的实验性感染证实发现了一种新的毛毕吸虫物种——雷根蒂毛毕吸虫新种。对该物种的成虫、虫卵和幼虫（毛蚴和尾蚴）进行了形态学特征描述。成虫寄生于鼻腔血管中并在那里产卵；毛蚴直接在组织中从虫卵孵化出来，并在受感染鸟类饮水/进食时离开宿主。
