<i>Leucochloridium paradoxum</i> parasitic flatworm

Leucochloridium paradoxum, the green-banded broodsac, is a parasitic flatworm. Its intermediate hosts are land snails, usually of the genus Succinea. The pulsating, green broodsacs fill the eye stalks of the snail, thereby attracting predation by birds, the primary host. The adult parasite lives in the bird's cloaca, releasing its eggs into the faeces.
