Abstract

An isoenzymatic analysis using thin-layer agarose gel isoelectrofocusing on laboratory strains of Echinostoma trivolvis and Echinostoma caproni adults showed characteristic monomorphic phenotypes for phosphoglucomutase and glucose phosphate isomerase. The fixed allelic variation observed between these 2 taxa is consistent with their current classification as distinct species.
