Hexabothriidae is a family of monogenean parasites. The family name was proposed by Emmett W. Price in 1942. [1] The family includes 14-16 genera according to authors [2] [3] and about 60 species; all are parasitic on the gills of chondrichthyan fishes (rays, sharks and chimaeras). [3] [4]

Studies on phylogeny of monogeneans based on morphology, [5] molecules [6] or spermatozoa [7] suggest that the Hexabothriidae are a basal group within the Polyopisthocotylea.

<i>Microcotyle</i> Genus of flatworms

Microcotyle is a genus which belongs to the phylum Platyhelminthes and class Monogenea. Species of Microcotyle are ectoparasites that affect their host by attaching themselves as larvae on the gills of the fish and grow into adult stage. This larval stage is called oncomiracidium, and is characterized as free swimming and ciliated.
