Plagiorchiida
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.

Trematode
Trematoda is a Class (biology), class of flatworms known as trematodes, and commonly as flukes. They are obligate parasite, obligate Endoparasites, internal parasites with a complex biological life cycle, life cycle requiring at least two Host (biology), hosts. The intermediate host, in which asexual reproduction occurs, is a Mollusca, mollusk, usually a snail. The definitive host, where the flukes Sexual reproduction, sexually reproduce, is a vertebrate. Infection by trematodes can cause disease in all five vertebrate classes: mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, and fish. Etymology Trematodes are commonly referred to as flukes. This term can be traced back to the Old English name for flounder, and refers to the flattened, rhomboidal shape of the organisms. The etymology of trematode stems from the Ancient Greek, Greek word ''trēmatṓdēs'', which means "pierced with holes", and refers to the worm's sucker (zoology), sucker, which pierces a hole in the host while the worm is ...
