Mitochondrial Genomes of Two Diplectanids (Platyhelminthes: Monogenea) Expose Paraphyly of the Order Dactylogyridea and Extensive tRNA Gene Rearrangements [PDF]
Parasites and Vectors, 2018 Background Recent mitochondrial phylogenomics studies have reported a sister-group relationship of the orders Capsalidea and Dactylogyridea, which is inconsistent with previous morphology- and molecular-based phylogenies.

Mitochondrial phylogenomics provides conclusive evidence that the family Ancyrocephalidae is deeply paraphyletic [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2023 Background Unresolved taxonomic classification and paraphyly pervade the flatworm class Monogenea: the class itself may be paraphyletic and split into Polyopisthocotylea and Monopisthocotylea; there are some indications that the monopisthocotylean order ...

Sequencing of the complete mitochondrial genome of a fish-parasitic flatworm Paratetraonchoides inermis (Platyhelminthes: Monogenea): tRNA gene arrangement reshuffling and implications for phylogeny [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background Paratetraonchoides inermis (Monogenea: Tetraonchoididae) is a flatworm parasitising the gills of uranoscopid fishes. Its morphological characteristics are ambiguous, and molecular data have never been used to study its phylogenetic ...

Short-Term Infection Dynamics of the Monogenean Parasite Ligictaluridus floridanus (Monogenea: Dactylogyridea: Ancyrocephalidae) on Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes: Ictaluridae) [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica Et PiscatoriaLigictaluridus floridanus (Mueller, 1936) is a monogenean parasite that affects farmed channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus (Rafinesque, 1818). No studies, however, have been conducted on this monogenean’s infection dynamics. The aim of this study was to

Four new species of Cichlidogyrus (Platyhelminthes, Monopisthocotyla, Dactylogyridae) from Lake Victoria haplochromine cichlid fishes, with the redescription of C. bifurcatus and C. longipenis [PDF]
ParasiteAfrican cichlids are model systems for evolutionary studies and host-parasite interactions, because of their adaptive radiations and because they harbour many species of monogenean parasites with high host-specificity.
