Host–Parasite Interaction Networks of Helminths of Sigmodontine Rodents in Two Different Areas of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.
Two helminth‐rodent networks were analyzed for two distinct areas. Network modularity, nestedness, and degree of specialization were calculated for each network. Higher network modularity than nestedness and high network specialization were observed in both networks, suggesting functional and/or taxonomic specialization between helminth species and ...

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1150-1169, April 2026.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Helminth fauna of Lebanon Lizard, Phoenicolacerta laevis (Gray, 1838), (Squamata: Lacertidae) from Southern Turkey

open access: yesHelminthologia, 2016
In the years 2010 and 2014, fifty-four samples of Phoenicolacerta laevis from eight localities in Adana (n=6) and Hatay (n=48) were collected and examined for helminth parasites. New host and locality records were recorded. As a results of present study,

Volumetric MRI study of the brain in patients with neurocysticercosis and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 109-118, February 2026.
Abstract Objective Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a common parasitic infection of the central nervous system and a known cause of focal epilepsy. Its potential role in triggering or contributing to mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE‐HS) is suggested, but the impact on brain volumetry remains unclear.

A common origin of complex life cycles in parasitic flatworms: evidence from the complete mitochondrial genome of Microcotyle sebastis (Monogenea: Platyhelminthes)

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The parasitic Platyhelminthes (Neodermata) contains three parasitic groups of flatworms, each having a unique morphology, and life style: Monogenea (primarily ectoparasitic), Trematoda (endoparasitic flukes), and Cestoda (endoparasitic ...

Intestinal Parasites of Zoonotic Significance in Human and Domestic Animals in a Rural Setting in Nepal

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Intestinal parasites are shared among humans and domestic animals. Rural setting is critical to enhance parasite zoonosis in Nepal. ABSTRACT Intestinal parasitic (IP) species with zoonotic significance are major public health issues, mostly prevalent in developing countries, leading to high morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to assess the

Species Diversity and Geographical Distribution of Poultry Ascaridids: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Poultry nematodes, particularly Ascaridid species, significantly affect avian health and productivity and are widely distributed globally. Yet despite over 80% of poultry in developing countries being raised under extensive rearing systems, knowledge on infection risks posed by different poultry nematodes remains limited.
