Title
Intertidal snail-trematode communities on the southern Thailand before and after the South Asia Tsunami
Intertidal snail-trematode communities in southern Thailand were examined before and after the South Asia tsunami. Infection rates and species diversity of cercaria in the host snail Cerithidea in tidal zones did not change significantly from one year before to one month after the tsunami. However, the host snails C. quadrata, C. alata and C. obtusa disappeared from greatly damaged sites, It Is important to follow up on the intertidal snail-trematode community recovery process after destruction of the intertidal ecosystem.
