Nematode (Nematoda: Mermithidae) and hairworm (Nematomorpha: Chordodidae) parasites in Early Cretaceous amber

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2006
The present report describes a mermithid nematode (Nematoda: Mermithidae) and a gordiid hairworm (Nematomorpha: Chordodidae) from Early Cretaceous Burmese amber dated at 100-110 million years. The mermithid, Cretacimermis protus sp. n., is emerging from a biting midge (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) while the hairworm, Cretachordodes burmitis, gen.

A Reexamination of Neochordodes occidentalis (Montg.) comb. n. (Chordodidae: Gordioidea): Larval Penetration and Defense Reaction in Culex pipiens L.

The Journal of Parasitology, 1974
The eggs, preparasitic larvae, and certain adult characters of Neochordodes occidentalis (Montg.) (Chordodidae: Gordioidea) are newly described. The method of penetration of preparasitic hairworms into larvae of Culex pipiens L. was examined. The parasites bored directly through the peritrophic membrane and epithelial gut cells to reach the host's body

Paleochordodes protus n.g., n.sp. (Nematomorpha, Chordodidae), Parasites of a Fossil Cockroach, with a Critical Examination of Other Fossil Hairworms and Helminths of Extant Cockroaches (Insecta: Blattaria)

Invertebrate Biology, 1999
Two hairworm parasites of a cockroach in Dominican amber (15-45 mya) are described as Paleochordodes protus n.g., n.sp. (Nematomorpha, Chordodidae) and represent the first unequivocal record of fossil nematomorphs. Previous reports of putative nematomorphs are discussed and shown to be tentative at best.

Field observation of predation on a horsehair worm (Gordioida: Chordodidae) by a diving beetle larva Cybister brevis Aubé (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae)

Entomological Science, 2019
AbstractDiving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) are carnivorous in both the larval and adult stages; larvae are exclusively predatory, whereas adults also scavenge for food. They are known to prey on zooplankton, insects, gastropods, fish, amphibians and reptiles.
