Fig. 1 in An alien intermediate snail host in Malawi - Orientogalba viridis (Quoy and Gaimard, 1832) - A new concern for schistosomiasis transmission in Africa?
Fig. 1. Site photo of the location where O. viridis was first encountered. Numerous snails were found on mud within the rice paddy [large inset] and, of particular note, a single schistosome cercaria of S. haematobium was observed upon microscopy and photographed [small inset] and confirmed by DNA barcoding. This rice paddy was immediately adjacent to a small oxbow lake, where children were seen swimming and numerous Bulinus were found but these snails were not observed to shed schistosome cercariae at the time of first survey in May 2023.

Africa Tree Database: use mapping
There are three main goals for this project. 1. To compile information on plant traits, seed dispersal, seed predation, and frugivory in Africa. 2. To store the information in a way that enables analyses of plant-animal interactions. 3. To share information about plants and animals in the database. We are compiling information from published literature. Our team uses a password-protected data entry form. If you would like to add published information that is not currently in our database, please contact us. One of the scientific goals of this project is to be able to find broad patterns and trends in seed dispersal relationships across Africa. The database is structured in a way to enable analysis of plant traits along with dispersers/predators and location information. Information about plants and the animals associated with them is viewable through this database, as well as through the Encyclopedia of Life (ATD is a content partner). Several hundred photographs of plants are viewable in Flickr and the Encyclopedia of Life.<p></p>
