    into free living, gutless miracidium
    larvae

  • miracidium -> spirocyst -> redia larvae
    -> cercaria
  • cercaria exits
  • cercaria enters 2nd intermediate host
  • becomes encysted metacercaria,
    develops further
  • 2nd intermediate host eaten by
    definitive host, migrate to appropriate
    place and mature
