Do all human urinary infections with Schistosoma mattheei represent hybridization between S. haematobium and S. mattheei? 1990

Enzyme electrophoresis indicated that all Schistosoma mattheei eggs passed in the urine of humans derive from S. mattheei females in copula with S. haematobium males. It appears that S. mattheei males do not reach sexual maturity in man; however, S. haematobiumxS. mattheei males possibly do.
