Phylum Platyhelminthes [PDF]

, 2015
The flatworms of the phylum Platyhelminthes comprise free-living (“Turbellaria”) and obligate parasitic organisms (Monogenea, Digenea, Aspidogastrea, and Cestoda, today grouped in Neodermata). “Turbellaria” includes an amazing variety of forms, but built in a similar way.

A Field-Friendly, Non-Toxic Fixative for Integrated Morphological and Molecular Research in Non-Model Invertebrates. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Formalin, ethanol, and RNAlater are commonly used fixatives for morphological and molecular studies, but each has limitations when specimen availability is low, as is often the case with field‐collected non‐model organisms. Here, we evaluate KINFix, a non‐toxic alcohol‐based fixative, in four invertebrate taxa and show that it effectively preserves ...

The state of the art of paleoparasitological research in the old world

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2003
Paleoparasitology in the Old World has mainly concerned the study of latrine sediments and coprolites collected from mummified bodies or archaeological strata, mostly preserved by natural conditions. Human parasites recovered include cestodes, trematodes,

Deciphering the Origin of DNA Viruses (Replication-Associated Parvo-NS1) That Infect Vertebrates from Invertebrate-Infecting Viruses

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
DNA replication is a standard and essential function among DNA viruses; however, this functional domain's common ancestor, origin, and evolutionary path in invertebrate- and vertebrate-infecting viruses are not yet fully understood.

Hatching Strategies in Monogenean (Platyhelminth) Parasites that Facilitate Host Infection [PDF]

, 2011
In parasites, environmental cues may influence hatching of eggs and enhance the success of infections. The two major endoparasitic groups of parasitic platyhelminths, cestodes (tapeworms) and digeneans (flukes), typically have high fecundity, infect more
