An illustration of the cercarial larva of Schistosoma, depicting an elongated body with a bifurcated tail adapted for swimming. In parasitology and medical microbiology, this life‑cycle stage represents a larva within a trematode (blood fluke) organism, released from freshwater snails to inhabit surface waters. The cercaria seeks vertebrate hosts and penetrates human skin to initiate schistosomiasis. The species is Schistosoma (S.) spp. This entity is a motile larval stage located in freshwater environments within the phylum Platyhelminthes.
