Two Dimensions of Biodiversity Research Exemplified by Nematomorpha and Gastrotricha [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2002
Biodiversity research combines two dimensions, the horizontal one that contains species diversity, patterns among this diversity and its interconnections and the vertical one that deals with the history of biodiversity, i.e., its phylogeny. With these tight interconnections, the importance of so-called "lesser known groups" such as Nematomorpha and ...

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 ...

Nematomorpha - poorly known parasites of invertebrates

Ecological Questions
Nematomorpha, also known as ‘horsehair worms’, is a poorly known group of animals that parasitize as larvae both, invertebrates and, less frequently vertebrates. There are approximately 360 species within this phylum, and previously, they were incorrectly classified as representatives of nematodes due to morphological similarity.

Clockwork intruders: Do parasites manipulate their hostsʼ circadian rhythms?

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
Most organisms have developed circadian clocks to adapt to 24-hour cycles in the environment. These clocks have become crucial for modulating and synchronizing complex behavioral and biological processes.

Ocurrencia de nemátodos en ninfas de Ephemeroptera en una quebrada de bosque tropical lluvioso

Intropica, 2016
Los nematodos son simbiontes comunes en los insectos acuáticos. Aquí evaluamos la presencia de nematodos en ninfas de Ephemeroptera, determinamos su prevalencia en la población y los factores asociados a la presencia del nematodo. Se colectaron ninfas (n

Nematomorpha Optimization Algorithm

omplex optimization problems by simulating the collective behavior of organisms in nature. This paper proposes a novel swarm intelligence optimization algorithm—the Nematomorpha Optimization Algorithm (NOA). The algorithm draws inspiration from the behavior of horsehair worms in nature, which involve crawling, contracting, extending, and sensing the ...
