BACKGROUND Slugs have been known worldwide as important pests of agricultural and horticultural production. They also play a role as intermediate or definitive hosts of helminths parasite. In this purpose, current study was carried out to examine slug radular teeth structure and slug infection with helminths larvae in north of Iran. METHODS A total number of 114 slugs were collected from cent...

Wetlands and water bodies in the Parana Delta River and Ibera System of northeast Argentina were studied for scaled chrysophytes. The Delta region of the Parana River is composed of a series of braided channels, streams and lagoons that extend over 17,500km2. Although the Delta is situated in the temperate zone, it experiences a more subtropical climate. The water ways of the Ibera System consi...

two slug species (parmacella ibera and agriolimax agresteris) from parmacelidae and ‎limacidae families were found dominant injuries slugs in nursery and field conditions during ‎2001-2003. different methods of control under field condition in grakheil station of sari vicinity ‎studied. the experiment conducted in complete randomized block design with eight treatments and ‎four replications. ea...

Wetlands are broadly defined as a variety of shallow water bodies and high ground water environments that are characterized by permanent or temporary inundation or, in other words, a terrestrial ecosystem which hydraulic condition is that of water saturated soils with plants and animals adapted to life in such an environment (Lewis, W.M., 1995). From a hydrological point of view, the Ibera wetl...

The objective of this work is to analyze at a regional scale the hydrometeorological and hydrological characteristics of the Esteros del Ibera, a vast freshwater wetland located in NE Argentina. Since water is the main driving force in the inland wetlands and variations in water level impose conditions on the behavior of vegetation and animal populations, the knowledge of the main hydrometeorol...
