A Horsehair Worm, Gordius sp. (Nematomorpha: Gordiida), Passed in a Canine Feces. [PDF]

Korean J Parasitol, 2015
Nematomorpha, horsehair or Gordian worms, include about 300 freshwater species in 22 genera (Gordiida) and 5 marine species in 1 marine genus (Nectonema). They are parasitic in arthropods during their juvenile stage. In the present study, the used gordian worm was found in the feces of a dog (5-month old, male) in July 2014. Following the worm analysis

Observations on a British hairworm, parachordodes-wolterstorffii(nematomorpha, gordiidae)

Journal of Zoology, 1983
Males of the nematomorph Parachordodes wolterstorffi from the New Forest, Hampshire, England have been examined entire, in thick sections and in cuticle preparations by light (differential interference contrast) and scanning electron microscopy. Surface features, internal organization and cuticular fibres are described and illustrated.

Infectivity of Chordodes nobilii larvae (Gordiida: Nematomorpha).

Revista de biologia tropical, 2017
Los gordiidos son representantes dulceacuícolas del Phylum parásito Nematomorpha que actúan como un enlace entre ecosistemas acuáticos y terrestres. En años recientes, diferentes estudios ecotoxicológicos se han desarrollado con una especie sudamericana de gordiido, C. nobilii, que ha demostrado la capacidad de este grupo de actuar como bioindicador de

Description of Chordodes anthophorus (Gordiida) for the first time in Iran with an emphasis on scanning electron microscopy characters [PDF]

Helminthologia, 2021
Summary We report a female Chordodes anthophorus from a Giant Asian Mantis ( Hierodula membranacea ) for the first time from Iran. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to describe the characters and substructures precisely.

A New Species of Gordionus (Nematomorpha: Gordiida) from the Rocky Mountains of New Mexico [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2020
The 19 genera within the phylum Nematomorpha contain approximately 350 species. The cosmopolitan genus Gordionus Müller, 1926 contains about 58 species, 6 of which occur in the contiguous United States of America. Recently, 2 new Gordionus species were described from high-altitude streams within the southern Rocky Mountains, near Santa Fe, New Mexico ...

Hairworms found in Scottish agricultural land, with descriptions of two new species of Gordionus Muller (Nematomorpha: Gordiidae)

Journal of Natural History, 1999
Three species of Nematomorpha were found in a survey of the ground beetles of Scottish agricultural land, Gordionus violaceus (Baird) and two undescribed new species, G. linourgos sp. nov. and G. diligens sp. nov. The morphology of all three species is studied with the aid of SEM, and the characteristics of the cuticle and the male terminal lobes ...

Chordodes colchis (Nematomorpha, Gordiida), a new species from Georgia [PDF]

Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2017
A new species, Chordodes colchis, is described from several locations in Georgia. The species resembles some other Chorodes species, especially C. anthophorus, which has also been described from Georgia, but differs in conspicuous details. The new species possesses prominent thorn areoles, which were not described in C. anthophorus.

LIFE CYCLE AND PARATENESIS OF AMERICAN GORDIIDS (NEMATOMORPHA: GORDIIDA)

Journal of Parasitology, 2004
To complete their life cycle, gordiids must make a transition from aquatic to terrestrial environments. However, epibenthic aquatic larvae and their terrestrial definitive hosts do not overlap in habitat. This has led many investigators to suggest that infections are acquired through the ingestion of insects, which become infected as aquatic larvae ...
