Helminths and Cancers From the Evolutionary Perspective
Frontiers in Medicine, 2018 Helminths include free-living and parasitic Platyhelminthes and Nematoda which infect millions of people worldwide. Some Platyhelminthes species of blood flukes (Schistosoma haematobium, Schistosoma japonicum, and Schistosoma mansoni) and liver flukes ...

Platyhelminths as paleogeographical indicators [PDF]
Hydrobiologia, 1995 Turbellarians do not feature as examples in the present discussions on the theory and method of analytical biogeography. It is argued, however, that turbellarian distributional records form good examples of large-scale biogeographic patterns resulting from continental breakup.

Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.ABSTRACT Sandy beaches are dynamic ecosystems where terrestrial and marine organisms coexist, resulting in diverse communities where microeukaryotes (protists, microalgae, and meiofauna) are key drivers. Understanding their diversity patterns and responses to stressors is essential for elucidating ecological processes, yet information on this subject ...

The Biodiversity of Retreating Glaciers Leaves an Ecological Legacy in Emerging Soil Communities
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.We provide the first multi‐taxa assessment of biodiversity transitions across the supraglacial‐proglacial interface, using eDNA metabarcoding across five glacier systems. Recently deglaciated soils resemble supraglacial communities taxonomically and functionally, markedly for microbes and weakly for animals, with microbial similarity declining rapidly ...
