Haplodiploidy in the Oxyurida: decoupling the evolutionary processes of adaptation and speciation [PDF]
Host distribution and life history variation in the Oxyurida are discussed in the context of haplodiploidy. The Oxyurida have the broadest host distribution of any zooparasitic nematode group but have retained a virtually unchanged life cycle. Like other haplodiploids, oxyuridians have life histories that maintain viscous population structures.

The Enterobiinae subfam. nov. (Nematoda, Oxyurida) pinworm parasites of primates and rodents
Recent redescriptions of most members of the Oxyuridae Cobbold, 1864 parasitic in primates revealed that they share following derived characters: sexual dimorphism of lateral alae (single-crested in the males, double-crested in the females); in males a second pair of genital papillae always surrounded by strongly cuticularized rings; in females ...

Gastrointestinal parasites of captive and free-ranging wild animals in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul [PDF]
Wild animals are hosts for many species of parasites which act as opportunistic or primary agents of disease. This study investigated the presence of endoparasites in the gastrointestinal tracts of wild animals from the State of Mato Grosso do Sul in the

Molecular Phylogeny of Nematodes (Oxyurida: Travassosinematidae) from Orthoptera (Gryllotalpidae) Inferred by Mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit 1 Gene. [PDF]
In this study, we sequenced mt Cox 1 gene sequences of five nematode spp. that were infective to arthropod, Gryllotalpa africana. The nematode belongs to Thelastomatoidea, a group of pinworms that parasitizes only invertebrates.

Monophyly of clade III nematodes is not supported by phylogenetic analysis of complete mitochondrial genome sequences [PDF]
Background The orders Ascaridida, Oxyurida, and Spirurida represent major components of zooparasitic nematode diversity, including many species of veterinary and medical importance.

Discovery of a 240 million year old nematode parasite egg in a cynodont coprolite sheds light on the early origin of pinworms in vertebrates [PDF]
Background We report the discovery of a nematode parasite egg (Nemata: Oxyurida) from a coprolite closely associated with the remains of several species of Cynodontia, dated to 240 million years old.

Mixing in Moderation: Slow Transmission of Non-Local Macroparasites Following a Population Augmentation of an Endangered Australian Skink. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Translocating threatened wildlife to more suitable habitat is increasingly necessary for conserving biodiversity. However, parasite dynamics in such translocations are poorly characterised, despite their potential importance for influencing translocation success and contributing to biodiversity and ecosystem function. We used single nucleotide
