Organ Dwelling Flukes
(reproduction would take place via
self-fertilization
Monoecious
reproduction type of organ dwelling flukes
Monoecious
shape of an adult form of organ dwelling flukes
Leaf-like or lancet-like; adult forms are non-segmented
diagnostic feature of organ dwelling flukes
Operculated eggs
intermediate host requirement for organ dwelling flukes
2 (snails serve as 1st IH; 2nd IH includes another snail,
aquatic vegetation/fruit, fresh water fish or crustacean)

Blood Flukes
(separate sexes; there would
male and female adult forms, thus copulation
serves as means for reproduction
