Abstract
An equal energy spectrum of monochromatic light (irradiance = 0.22 μW/cm2) caused miracidia of Schistosoma mansoni to respond maximally in a directed manner to wavelengths of 525 nm and 650 um. Miracidia of S. mansoni responded to wavelengths which make up the greatest percentage composition of spectral intensity in clear fresh water and muddy waters.Keywords
