Myxozoa + Polypodium : A Common Route to Endoparasitism [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2016 Recent evidence places the problematic Polypodium, a parasite of fish eggs, firmly as sister taxon to Myxozoa within the Cnidaria. This resolution suggests a single route to endoparasitism in Cnidaria, with larval stages of a common ancestor exploiting fish as first hosts.

Antigenic characterization of Enteromyxum leei (Myxozoa: Myxosporea) [PDF]
Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2013 Enteromyxum leei, an intestinal myxozoan parasite affecting a wide range of fish, was partially purified, and the immunogenic composition of its glycoproteins as well as the proteolytic activity were studied. Parasite extracts, mainly containing spores, were separated by SDS-PAGE, and thereafter, immunoblots were carried out with a polyclonal antiserum
