Exploring Barbronia Species Diversity and Phylogenetic Relationship Within Suborder Erpobdelliformes (Clitellata: Annelida) [PDF]
PeerJBackground Barbronia, a genus of freshwater macrophagous leeches, belongs to Erpobdelliformes (Salifidae: Clitellata: Annelida), and B. weberi, a well-known leech within this genus, has a worldwide distribution. However, the systematics of Barbronia have

A fine-scale phylogenetic assessment of digenean trematodes in central Alberta reveals we have yet to uncover their total diversity. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 This manuscript represents a large, single, collective examination of larval trematodes from snail hosts, using molecular markers and phylogenetic methods. We contribute 1,091 mitochondrial sequences (cox1 and nad1) that represent 79 species from 23 genera and eight families.

First Records of Potamic Leech Fauna of Eastern Siberia, Russia
Dataset Papers in Science, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 We studied the fauna of leech and leech‐like species inhabiting main water streams of Eastern Siberia and its tributaries, which are attributed to Lake Baikal basin and Lena River basin. Here we present their list for the first time. This study was mainly aimed for free‐living parasitic and carnivorous leeches whereas piscine parasites were not ...

KF‐metaweb: A trophic metaweb of freshwater ecosystems of South Korea
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 7, July 2024.Abstract Motivation The metaweb is a dictionary of nodes and their potential interactions developed for a particular region, focusing on a particular type of ecosystem. Based on the local biodiversity information at different spatial and temporal scales, the regional metaweb can be easily decomposed into local webs.
