C. barbara was found for the first time in south-eastern of Anatolia in April2019 in the campus area of the Dicle University in Diyarbakır, Turkey. C. barbara is admitted as a harmful organismand classified as an agricultural pest in most of the countries. Species in this genus have been intercepted in postalpackages, soil, and cargo as well as can be easily transported with plants, building materials, household goods, etc.Above all, it is an intermediate host of nematode and fluke parasites of livestock.
