Complexities of snail xenomonitoring in relation to schistosomiasis transmission monitoring Bonnie Webster Tom Pennance, Fiona Allan, Aidan Emery, Muriel Rabone, Toby Landeryou, Joanne Webster, Amadou Garba, Shaali Ame, Teckla Angelo, Yves-Nathan Tian-Bi, David Rollinson.

African Human Schistosomiasis Snail Xenomonitoring is used to inform on transmission, to certify transmission interruption and surveillance African Human Schistosomiasis

Asia Africa ? Asia India E. Europe Africa Biomphalaria spp. India + Asia ? Bulinus spp. Africa Due to the focus on human schistosomiasis snails are often assumed to be shedding human schistosomes = Bovids

Snail surveys and collections Ponds and lakes Streams, Rivers and Paddies Springs Dry sites recorded (seasonal) Water contact recorded Sites mapped

Cercariae identification All snails checked individually for shedding Cercariae stored for molecular identification

Cercariae identification 1200bp 1000bp PCR Nuclear ITS DNA Mitochondrial cox1 DNA 2mm punch FTA alkaline DNA elution method (provides enough DNA for ~12 PCRs) Data analysis and cercariae identification by comparison to reference data Sanger Sequencing

Transmission Monitoring Projects Niger S. haematobium Tanzania S. mansoni Cote D’Ivoire S. haematobium Zanzibar S. haematobium

Zanzibar, Pemba Xenomonitoring (Tom Pennance, Said Mohammed, Shaali Ame, Khamis Suleiman, Armour Amour) Pemba Urogenital schistosomiasis; S. haematobium ZEST: Zanzibar Elimination of Schistosomiasis Transmission (Steffi Knopp and David Rollinson Fatma Kabole, Said Mohammed) 2012-2016 Unguja S. haematobium was the only species transmitted in Zanzibar.

Zanzibar, Pemba Xenomonitoring (Tom Pennance, Said Mohammed, Shaali Ame, Khamis Suleiman, Armour Amour) 4 categories of sites were included surveys ~3 months apart to assess longitudinal transmission (2016-2018) High Decliners High Non- responders Low Non- responders Low Decliners Prevalence

Bulinus globosus transmits S. haematobium on Zanzibar B. forskalii B. nasutus B. globosus X X S. haematobium ? Regarding role of B. nasutus in transmission

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring (Teckla Angelo, Safari Kinunghi, Fiona Allan, Tom Pennance, Kate Poulton, Elena Luigi) Can we detect transmission in low prevalence areas ? Hotspot Biomphalaria choanomphala - deeper in Lake Victoria B. sudanica - shallow banks and marshes of Lake Victoria

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring Can we detect transmission in low prevalence areas ? Hotspot 4 surveys 2016-2017;

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring Can we detect transmission in low prevalence areas ? Hotspot 4 surveys 2016-2017; ~9000 Biomphalaria were collected from 46 HWC Also >2000 Bulinus were collected

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring ~9000 Biomphalaria; 11 were infected Biomphalaria spp. ~2000 Bulinus; 4 were infected Bulinus spp.

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring S. mansoni group ~9000 Biomphalaria; 11 were infected Biomphalaria spp. ~2000 Bulinus; 4 were infected Bulinus spp. S. haematobium group

Tanzania, Mwanza Xenomonitoring 3 shedding S. rodhaini 8 shedding S. mansoni Biomphalaria spp. 1 shedding S. kisumuensis Only been found in Kenya before 3 shedding S. haematobium Bulinus spp.

Côte D’Ivoire Xenomonitoring (Yves-Nathan Tian-Bi, Fiona Allan, David Rollinson, Eliézer N’Goran, Muriel Rabone) Assessing S. haematobium transmission B. truncatus B. forskalii B. globosus 3 surveys 2016-2017;

Côte D’Ivoire Xenomonitoring 18 25 snails infected B. truncatus B. forskalii 7 B. globosus 3 surveys 2016-2017; 3602 snails were collected from 92 HWC

Côte D’Ivoire Xenomonitoring 13 infected with S. bovis 18 2 infected with S. haematobium 5 were infected with S. haematobium-bovis hybrids B. truncatus Highly prevalent in West Africa B. forskalii 3 infected with S. haematobium 7 5 were infected with S. haematobium-bovis hybrids B. globosus

Conclusions Detailed snail xenomonitoring studies can inform on schistosomiasis transmission (humans and animals). Need to understand which species are being transmitted in different geographical areas. Cercariae need to be molecularly identified so that assumptions are not made – particularly in relation to human schistosomiasis transmission. Species specific molecular markers are needed for pre-patent infection Xenomonitoring. These studies allow new transmission in foci to be identified; S. bovis in Zanzibar S. haematobium-bovis hybrids in Côte D’Ivoire S. kisumuensis in Tanzania
