A new species of Gordius (Nematomorpha, Gordiidae) from the karstic caves in the Wuling Mountains, Central China

Zoosystematics and Evolution
Gordius wulingensissp. nov., a newly described horsehair worm, parasitizes Tachycines (Orthoptera, Rhaphidophoridae). Free-living specimens are mainly found in karstic cave puddles. In recent years, a total of 37 creamy white horsehair worms were collected from various caves in the Wuling Mountains.

An anomaly against a current paradigm – extremely low rates of individual fecundity variability of the Gordian worm (Nematomorpha: Gordiida)

Parasitology, 2008
SUMMARYExtreme variation in reproductive success (VRS) has been reported as a common feature of populations. Few individuals producing most of the offspring for the next generation has potential consequences for the population dynamics, genetics, and evolution of a group of organisms.

Ultrastructural observations of the testicular epithelium and spermatozoa of Pseudochordodes bedriagae (Gordiida, Nematomorpha)

Cell and Tissue Research, 2005
Two questions are of interest concerning the male reproductive system in Gordiida: (1) is the epithelium surrounding the testis continuous or discontinuous and (2) is the type of spermatozoon as described at the transmission electron-microscopical level for the two species of Gordius typical for all Gordiida?
