Abstract:

Reports of human schistosomiasis from various localities in the Mekong valley initiated a systematic survey of molluscan fauna at and around these foci in Thailand, Laos and Cambodia which was sponsored by two grants between 1963 and 1969. This report is a complete malacological faunistic report of findings in the Mekong survey. The specimens for reference collections are partly stored at Mahidol University in Bangkok, Thailand and partly in the U.S. National Museum in Washington, D.C. Author
