A Rare Fish Amphistome Revisited: The Phylogenetic Position of Kalitrema kalitrema (Trematoda: Cladorchiidae) Found in Hypostomus spp. (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from Brazil

Diversity, 2023
Despite recent advances in the molecular knowledge of amphistome trematodes, most genera known from fish remain to be genetically characterized. This is the case for Kalitrema, a genus of the speciose family Cladorchiidae and the type of Kalitrematinae ...

Size does not matter: molecular phylogeny reveals one of the largest trematodes from vertebrates, the enigmatic Ithyoclinostomum dimorphum, as a species of Clinostomum (Trematoda: Clinostomidae)

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Despite the recent advances raised in the molecular era to the taxonomic knowledge of species of the family Clinostomidae, especially those belonging to the specious genus Clinostomum, some groups of these vertebrate parasites remain poorly studied. This

Exploring Evolutionary Relationships within Neodermata Using Putative Orthologous Groups of Proteins, with Emphasis on Peptidases

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2023
The phylogenetic relationships within Neodermata were examined based on putative orthologous groups of proteins (OGPs) from 11 species of Monogenea, Trematoda, and Cestoda. The dataset included OGPs from BUSCO and OMA.

Diversity of echinostomes (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) in their snail hosts at high latitudes

Parasite, 2021
The biodiversity of freshwater ecosystems globally still leaves much to be discovered, not least in the trematode parasite fauna they support. Echinostome trematode parasites have complex, multiple-host life-cycles, often involving migratory bird ...

A common origin of complex life cycles in parasitic flatworms: evidence from the complete mitochondrial genome of Microcotyle sebastis (Monogenea: Platyhelminthes)

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The parasitic Platyhelminthes (Neodermata) contains three parasitic groups of flatworms, each having a unique morphology, and life style: Monogenea (primarily ectoparasitic), Trematoda (endoparasitic flukes), and Cestoda (endoparasitic ...
