  • The effects of methanol extracts of plant molluscicide, Brassaia actinophylla (Araliaceae) had been assessed on development of eggs f snails, Biomphalaria glabrata and Indoplanorbis exustus at sublethal concentrations. Results revealed that the administration of 10mg/l of B. actionophylla caused some alterations in embryos of both species. Niclosamide (0.004 mg/l) also arrested the development of embryos in B. glabrata ans I. exustus. It can be concluded that B. actinophylla has a potential use as an avicidal agent in the control of the snail intermediate hosts of schistosomiasis.
