Dilepididae is a family of flatworms belonging to the order Cyclophyllidea. [1]
The World Register of Marine Species accepts the following genera within Dilepididae: [2]
The Anisakidae are a family of intestinal nematodes (roundworms). The larvae of these worms can cause anisakiasis when ingested by humans, in raw or insufficiently cooked fish.
Plagiorchiida is a large order of trematodes, synonymous to Echinostomida. They belong to the Digenea, a large subclass of flukes. This order contains relatively few significant parasites of humans.
Davaineidae is the name of a family of tapeworms that includes helminth parasites of vertebrates. Of the 14 genera recorded under this family, Raillietina is the best understood and most extensively studied. Members of the family are characterized by the presence of a crown (rostellum) at the tip of the scolex, and the rostellum is made up of mattock- or hammer-shaped hooks. The rostellum is surrounded by suckers which are armed with spines. These tapeworms are most commonly found in birds, and in few cases, mammals, which are the definitive hosts. Intermediate hosts are small insects such as ants. Hosts of Davainea proglottina, for example, are chickens. Slugs are the intermediate hosts.
Pilsbryspira is a genus of small predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae.
Compsodrillia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies.
Carinodrillia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies.
Lioglyphostoma is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae.
Glyphostoma is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Clathurellidae.
Kurtziella is a genus of small, predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae. Prior to a 2011 genetic revision, the genus used to be included in the family Conidae.
Agathotoma is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Mangeliidae.
Nassarina is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Columbellidae, the dove snails.
The Anoplocephalidae are a family of tapeworms containing the genera Bertiella, Anoplocephala, Paranoplocephala, Moniezia, and others.
Echinostomatidae is a family of trematodes in the order Plagiorchiida, first described in 1899.
Diplostomidae is a family of trematodes in the order Diplostomida.
Physalopteridae is a family of spirurian nematodes, which belongs to the superfamily Physalopteroidea. Like all nematodes, they have neither a circulatory nor a respiratory system.
Raphidascarididae is a family of roundworms in the order Ascaridida. It encompasses nine genera, including Hysterothylacium, which parasitize marine fish, and Raphidascaris. The family contains over 190 species.
Choanotaenia is a genus of flatworms belonging to the family Dilepididae.
Tetrabothrius is a genus of flatworms belonging to the family Tetrabothriidae.
Anteholosticha is a genus of hypotrich, a group of protists.
Tatria is a genus of tapeworms in the family Amabiliidae. It contains at least 15 known species and is the largest genus in the Amabiliidae family.
