CROSSOBOTHRIUM LACINIATUM AND DEVELOPMENTAL STIMULI IN THE CESTODA

The Biological Bulletin, 1903
In the spiral valve of the "sand shark" (Carcharias littoralis) taken from the Woods Holl region there is found in a large majority of the specimens examined the Cestode, Crossobothrium laciniatum. This genus and species was first described by Linton ("Rept. U. S. F. Com." for I886), and in subsequent papers appearing in the same publication or in the "

A revision of the Rhoptrobothriidae (Cestoda: “Tetraphyllidea”)

Zootaxa, 2021
The Rhoptrobothriidae are one of the more enigmatic families of cestodes of elasmobranchs. Opinions on the taxonomic status of the family’s three original genera (i.e., Myzophyllobothrium, Rhoptrobothrium, and Myzocephalus) have varied over the 115 years since they were erected.

Machine learning models accurately predict clades of proteocephalidean tapeworms (Onchoproteocephalidea) based on host and biogeographical data. [PDF]

Cladistics
Abstract Proteocephalids are a cosmopolitan and diverse group of tapeworms (Cestoda) that have colonized vertebrate hosts in freshwater and terrestrial environments. Despite the ubiquity of the group, key macroevolutionary processes that have driven the group's evolution have yet to be identified.

Noninvasive Methods Unveil the Trophic Transmission of the Tapeworm Ligula intestinalis in Gull-Billed Terns. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Using both copromicroscopic (Mini‐FLOTAC) and molecular (qPCR) techniques, we detected and quantified the macroparasite Ligula intestinalis in Gull‐billed Terns for the first time. Phylogenetic analyses revealed genetic similarities among parasite isolates from birds (definitive hosts) and fish prey (intermediate hosts), suggesting local infection from

Chromosome analysis of Proteocephalus osculatus (Cestoda: Proteocephalidea) [PDF]

Folia Parasitologica, 2001
The cestode order Proteocephalidea Mola, 1928 is dominated by the cosmopolitan genus Proteocephalus Weinland, 1858, which includes about 40% of its nominal species. Proteocephalus spp. are found in freshwater fishes, amphibians, and reptiles (Freze V.I. 1965: Proteocephalideans – Tapeworm Helminths of Fish, Amphibians and Reptiles.

Rodents of Senegal and their role as intermediate hosts of Hydatigera spp. (Cestoda: Taeniidae)

Parasitology, 2018
Hydatigera (Cestoda: Taeniidae) is a recently resurrected genus including species seldom investigated in sub-Saharan Africa. We surveyed wild small mammal populations in the areas of Richard Toll and Lake Guiers, Senegal, with the objective to evaluate ...

Comparative mitogenomics supports synonymy of the genera Ligula and Digramma (Cestoda: Diphyllobothriidae)

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
After observing differences in the number of reproductive complexes per proglottid within the genus Ligula, the genus Digramma was erected. However, the validity of Digramma has been previously questioned due to a low variability in the cox1, nad1 and ...
