Opecoelus is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Opecoelidae is a family of trematodes. It is the largest digenean family with over 90 genera and nearly 900 species, almost solely found in marine and freshwater teleost fishes. It was considered by Bray et al. to belong in the superfamily Opecoeloidea Ozaki, 1925 or the Brachycladioidea Odhner, 1905.
Pseudopecoeloides is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Hamacreadium is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It is synonymous with Olivacreadium Bilqees, 1976. Species of Hamacreadium are endoparasitic in fish such as Lethrinus Cuvier, 1829.
Allopodocotyle is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Cainocreadium is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It has been synonymised with Apopodocotyle Pritchard, 1966, Cainocreadoides Nagaty, 1956, and Emmettrema Caballero y Caballero, 1946.
Coitocaecum is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It has been synonymised to Ozakia Wisniewski, 1934, Paradactylostomum Zhukov, 1972 nec Toman, 1992, and Pseudocoitocaecum Bilqees, 1972.
Dactylostomum is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It is synonyised with Opedunculata Dwivedi, 1975.
Decemtestis is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It has been synonymised with Allodecemtestis Hafeezullah, 1970.
Diplobulbus is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Helicometra is a genus of trematodes in the class Opecoelidae. It is synonymous with AllostenoperaBaeva, 1968, MetahelicometraYamaguti, 1971, and StenoperaManter, 1933. Its type species is H. fasciata(Rudolphi, 1819). They are distinguished by their unique spiral uterus, from which their name is derived.
Neonotoporus is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Opegaster is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Podocotyloides is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Pseudopecoelus is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It has been synonymised with Neopecoelus Manter, 1947.
Pycnadenoides is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Caudotestis is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Choanotrema is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. It was formerly named Choanostoma Yamaguti, 1934.
Pseudoplagioporus is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Trilobovarium is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae.
Pseudoheterolebes is a genus of trematodes in the family Opecoelidae. After having been originally described, it was largely ignored by other scientists due to the originally vague definition of the genus; Martin et al., 2018 resurrected the genus to resolve a dispute among the existing definitions of Opistholebes and Maculifer, which were also described by earlier reports of Yamaguti.
