Accacoelium is a genus of flatworms belonging to the family Accacoeliidae. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Europe and Northern America. [1]
Species: [1]
Ant spiders are members of the family Zodariidae. They are small to medium-sized eight-eyed spiders found in all tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Africa, Madagascar, Australia-New Guinea, New Zealand, Arabia and the Indian subcontinent. Most species are daytime hunters and live together with ants, mimicking their behavior and sometimes even their chemical traits. Although little is known about most zodariids, members of the genus Zodarion apparently feed only on ants; a number of other genera in the family are apparently also ant specialists.
Adolphe Joseph Thomas Monticelli was a French painter of the generation preceding the Impressionists.
Tetraphyllidea is a large tapeworm order that contains some 60 genera and about 800 described species. Tetraphyllideans are remarkable for their scolex morphologies, which are the most varied and morphologically complex amongst all tapeworm orders.
The Streblidae are a family of flies in the superfamily Hippoboscoidea, and together with their relatives the Nycteribiidae, are known as bat flies. They are winged or wingless ectoparasites of bats, and often have long legs. They appear to be host-specific, with different species of bat flies occurring only on particular species of bat hosts, sometimes with multiple species of flies sharing a host bat.
The draughtsboard shark is a species of catshark, and part of the family Scyliorhinidae, so named for its "checkerboard" colour pattern of dark blotches. It is endemic to New Zealand, where it is also known as the carpet shark. This shark typically reaches 1 m (3.3 ft) in length and has a thick body with a broad, flattened head and a capacious mouth. Its two dorsal fins are placed far back on the body, with the first much larger than the second.
Echinorhynchus is a genus of acanthocephalan parasitic worms. They parasitize a wide variety of fishes from both marine and fresh waters. The intermediate host is usually a crustacean.
Mazocraeidea is an order of flatworms in the subclass Polyopisthocotylea within the class Monogenea.
Calydiscoides euzeti is a species of monogenean of the family Diplectanidae.
Accacoelium contortum is a parasitic flatworm of the class Trematoda. It lives in the gills and oral cavity of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola, and was first described by Swedish-born naturalist Karl Rudolphi in 1819. Accacoelium contortum is the type-species of the family Accacoeliidae and the only known species of the genus Accacoelium.
Francesco Saverio Monticelli (1863–1927) was an Italian zoologist at the Zoological Museum of Naples.
Calliobothrium is a genus of cestodes in the order Tetraphyllidea. Most, or possibly all, of the known species are parasites found within the intestines of members of the shark family Triakidae. It is known that in some instances at least two different species of Calliobothrium can parasitise the same species of shark.
Proterodiplostomidae is a monotypic family of trematodes in the order Diplostomida. It consists of one subfamily, Polycotylinae Monticelli, 1888, which consists of one genus, Cheloniodiplostomum Sudarikov, 1960, which consists of four species: Cheloniodiplostomum argentinense Palumbo & Diaz, 2018; Cheloniodiplostomum breve ; Cheloniodiplostomum delillei ; and Cheloniodiplostomum testudinis.
Diphyllobothriidae is a family of Cestoda (tapeworms). Members of this family are gut parasites of vertebrates. In most species the definitive hosts are marine or aquatic mammals such as cetaceans and pinnipeds, the first intermediate host usually being a crustacean and the second intermediate a fish. The genus Diphyllobothrium is found as an adult in mammals and fish-eating birds, including the domestic cat. The genus Spirometra tends to have a land-dwelling or semi-aquatic vertebrate as its second intermediate host, with the adults usually occurring in felines.
Oliveriplectanum is a genus of monopisthocotylean monogeneans belonging to the family Diplectanidae. All its species are parasites on marine perciform fishes.
Paradiplectanum is a genus of monopisthocotylean monogeneans in the family Diplectanidae. All its species are parasites on marine perciform fishes of the family Sillaginidae.
Oligoterorhynchus is a genus of parasitic worms belonging to the family Plagiorhynchidae.
Chapmania is a monotypic genus of flatworms belonging to the family Davaineidae. The only species is Chapmania tauricollis.
Accacoeliidae is a family of trematodes belonging to the order Plagiorchiida.
Bothriocephalus is a genus of flatworms belonging to the family Bothriocephalidae.
Hapalotrema is a genus of trematodes belonging to the family Spirorchiidae.
