Metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiota of hooded cranes (Grus monacha) on the Izumi plain in Japan. [PDF]
FEBS Open BioWe analyzed metagenomic sequencing data obtained from fecal samples of hooded cranes and wild ducks that winter on the Izumi Plain in Japan. Various organisms were identified in each sample, and their diversity differs between the crane and duck groups, suggesting that these two bird species may have distinct gut microbiota.

Fertilization in the cestode Echinococcus multilocularis (Cyclophyllidea, Taeniidae) [PDF]
Acta Parasitologica, 2016 AbstractFertilization in the taeniid cestode Echinococcus multilocularis with uniflagellate spermatozoa was examined by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Fertilization in this species occurs in the oviduct lumen or in the fertilization canal proximal to the ootype, where the formation of the embryonic capsule precludes sperm contact with

Invertebrate Biology, Volume 141, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Parasitic helminths with complex life cycles require multiple hosts in a particular order to complete their life cycles. Although almost all helminths infect invertebrates at some point in their life cycle, we know very little about which species of invertebrates harbor parasites compared with what is known for vertebrates. In New Zealand, <1%
