Hematobium

/ˌhɛməˈtoʊbiəm/ noun

Definition

A genus of parasitic flatworms that live in blood vessels, particularly associated with the disease schistosomiasis.

Etymology

From Greek 'haima' (blood) + 'bios' (life), with Latin scientific naming conventions. Named for the organism's blood-dwelling habitat.

Kelly Says

Schistosoma hematobium infects over 100 million people worldwide—it's a tragedy that such an incredible parasite (incredible in its ability to survive, not in a good way!) remains a major health problem in developing countries!
