Neodiplostomum craterum

Species of fluke

Neodiplostomum craterum is a fluke that infects Virginia opossums, American minks, and marsh rice rats in North America. In a study in Florida, F. lucida was the only fluke of the marsh rice rat that occurred in both the freshwater marsh at Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park and the saltwater marsh at Cedar Key. At the former locality, it infected 11% of rice rats and the number of worms per infected rat ranged from 1 to 65, averaging 17. At Cedar Key, 67% of rice rats were infected and the number of worms per infected rat ranged from 1 to 1975, averaging 143.
