Schistosomiasis is a parasitic infection that induces severe complications and remains silent for a long period of time. Schistosoma haematobium Bilharz and Schistosoma mansoni Sambo are the incriminated agents together freshwater gastropod molluscs (Biomphalaria pfeifferi; Bulinus globosus; Bulinus truncatus and Bulinus forskalii) as disease vectors in Benin. In order to map the potential transmission of schistosomiasis by predicting the ecological dimensions and potential distributions in the present and future, occurrence data of schistosomiasis pathogens (Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni) and their respective vectors (Bulinus africanus, Bulinus truncatus, Bulinus globosus and Bulinus forskalii) and Biomphalaria pfeifferi were collected from the literature (articles and statistical reports) and from fieldwork.Sampling Description

- Schistosoma mansoni Sambo are the incriminated agents together freshwater gastropod molluscs (Biomphalaria pfeifferi; Bulinus globosus; Bulinus truncatus and Bulinus forskalii) as disease vectors in Benin. Occurrence data of schistosomiasis pathogens (Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni) and their respective vectors (Bulinus africanus, Bulinus truncatus, Bulinus globosus and Bulinus forskalii) and Biomphalaria pfeifferi were collected from literature through articles and statistical reports.
- In the field, occurrence data of schistosomiasis pathogens available in curative care registers, epidemiological surveillance databases, and the DHIS2 (District Health Information System 2) database of statistical
