To determine the relative importance of local adaptation caused by host–parasite coevolution and resource tracking by the parasites, the susceptibility of the freshwater snail genusSemisulcospirato the digenean parasite genusGenarchopsiswas investigated experimentally. Four snail species endemic to the Lake Biwa system in Japan and two non-endemic species were investigated. All but one species was also tested for local variation in susceptibility.Parasites were obtained from Takashima (mix population ofGenarchopsis gigiandGenarchopsis chubuensis) and Nagahama (G. chubuensis). In endemicSemisulcospira, closely related specie pairs (Semisulcospira habeiandSemisulcospira niponica,Semisulcospira decipiensandSemisulcospira nakasekoae) showed similar susceptibilities to parasites from both localities.S. habeiandS. niponicawere highly susceptible to parasites from Takashima, but were resistant to parasites from Nagahama.S. decipiensandS. nakasekoaeshowed moderate susceptibility to parasites from both localities. None of the endemic snail species showed a clear local variation in susceptibility. These results show that the susceptibility of endemicSemisulcospiratoGenarchopsisis conservative and can be regarded as an example of resource-tracking. One of the non-endemic snails,Semisulcospira libertina, showed local variation in susceptibility. This variation was not related to the sympatry of the parasites used for the experimental infection, suggesting that it was not the result of local adaptation by parasites.
