Schistosoma sinensium belongs to the Asian Schistosoma and is transmitted by freshwater snails of the genus Tricula. Rodents are known definitive hosts of S. sinensium. In 2016, suspected schistosome eggs were found in the feces of the northern tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri) in a field in Lufeng County (latitude, 25°04′50″ N; longitude, 102°19′30″ E; altitude 1820 m), Yunnan Province, China. Morphological analysis suggested that the schistosome was S. sinensium. 18S, 12S and CO1 genes sequencing and phylogenetic analysis showed that this species had the highest similarity to and occupied the same evolutionary branch as S. sinensium from Mianzhu, Sichuan, China. Meanwhile, based on 16S and 28S rDNA sequencing and morphological identification, the snail intermediate host was identified as a species of Tricula, and was found in irrigation channels. Phylogeny indicated that Tricula sp. LF was a sister taxon to T. bambooensis, T. ludongbini. The S. sinensium was able to experimentally infect the captive-bred Tupaia belangeri, and Schistosoma eggs were recovered from all Tupaia belangeri exposed. In this study, we report the infection of Tupaia belangeri and Tricula sp. LF with S. sinensium in Lufeng, Yunnan, southwest China. These findings may improve our understanding of the host range, evolution, distribution, and phylogenetic position of S. sinensium.
