Myxosporean hyperparasites of gill monogeneans are basal to the Multivalvulida [PDF]
Background: Myxosporeans are known from aquatic annelids but parasitism of platyhelminths by myxosporeans has not been widely reported. Hyperparasitism of gill monogeneans by Myxidium giardi has been reported from the European eel and Myxidium-like ...
