This work evaluates biological and epidemiologica features of B,O m p hahr,a breedmg sites in the municiplaity of Uberlândia, MO. The study was catried out tn the Corrego do óleo, an impottan stream located in the urban zone and w.theIBAMA s aquattc stafon to m October 93 to July 94 and to m October 95 to June 96 The stream was mapped and shared in sectors (A, B and C) and sections. The demarcai,on of secfons was by hnear meter o f stream at intervals of 100 meters and eaeh one was samples monthly. All fish breeding tanks of the IBAMA’s station were searched. The snatls were captured usmg sieves adapted with wooden handles and 10 Iadlefttls were taken eve,y 50 Imear metem c» dudpieu wiui w hv means of morphological and anatomical The Biomphalaria species were identifie y exnnsine the snaite tn features Schistosoma mansoni infection was investigated by exposing the snatls to vdiures. òcmsiosomu . , , kjoinoieal features of the Biomphalaria breeding artificial light.
