''Maritrema'' is a genus of flukes in the family Microphallidae, although some have suggested its placement in the separate family Maritrematidae.〔 It was first described by Nikoll in 1907 from birds in Britain.〔Nikoll, 1907, pp. 265–266〕 Species of the genus usually infect birds, but several have switched hosts and are found in mammals, such as the marsh rice rat.〔Tkach et al., 2005, pp. 210–211〕 Several species use the fiddler crab ''Uca pigilator'' as an intermediate host.〔 Species include: *''Maritrema acadiae'' (Swales, 1933)〔 *''Maritrema arenaria'' Hadley and Castle, 1940〔Tkach et al., 2005, table 1〕 *''Maritrema bonaerensis'' Etchegoin and Martorelli, 1997〔Etchegoin and Martorelli, 1997, p. 710〕 *''Maritrema carpathica'' Matskasi, 1984〔 *''Maritrema chiriacae'' Deblock, 1975〔 *''Maritrema feliui'' Gracenea, Montoliu and Deblock, 1993〔Tkach et al., 2005, p. 11〕 *''Maritrema gratiosum'' Nikoll, 1907〔Nikoll, 1907, p. 266〕 *''Maritrema heardi'' (Kinsella and Deblock, 1994)〔 *''Maritrema humile'' Nikoll, 1907〔 *''Maritrema lepidum'' Nikoll, 1907〔 *''Maritrema majestova'' Ke, 1976〔 *''Maritrema neomi'' Tkoch, 1998〔 *''Maritrema oocysta'' Lebour, 1907〔 *''Maritrema paracadiae'' Ching, 1974〔 *''Maritrema prosthometra'' Deblock and Heard, 1969〔 *''Maritrema pulcherrima'' Travassos, 1928〔Etchegoin and Martorelli, 1997, p. 712〕 *''Maritrema pyrenaica'' Deblock and Combes, 1965〔 *''Maritrema subdolum'' Jägerskiöld, 1909〔 An undescribed species, "''Maritrema'' sp. I", is known from clapper rails (''Rallus crepitans'') and marsh rice rats (''Oryzomys palustris'') in the eastern United States.〔Kinsella, 1988, p. 277〕 ''M. heardi'' was placed in a separate genus ''Floridatrema'' upon its description in 1994 on the basis of a morphological difference, but was reassigned to ''Maritrema'' in 2005, as molecular data indicated that ''Maritrema'' would be paraphyletic without the inclusion of the species.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maritrema」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
