Flatworms
The flatworms, flat worms, Platyhelminthes, or platyhelminths (from the Greek πλατύ, ''platy'', meaning "flat" and ἕλμινς (root: ἑλμινθ-), ''helminth-'', meaning "worm") are a phylum of relatively simple bilaterian, unsegmented, soft-bodied invertebrates. Unlike other bilaterians, they are acoelomates (having no body cavity), and have no specialized circulatory and respiratory organs, which restricts them to having flattened shapes that allow oxygen and nutrients to pass through their bodies by diffusion. The digestive cavity has only one opening for both ingestion (intake of nutrients) and egestion (removal of undigested wastes); as a result, the food cannot be processed continuously. In traditional medicinal texts, Platyhelminthes are divided into Turbellaria, which are mostly non-parasitic animals such as planarians, and three entirely parasitic groups: Cestoda, Trematoda and Monogenea; however, since the turbellarians have since been proven not to be ...

Taeniidae
The Taeniidae are a family (biology), family of cestoda, tapeworms. It is the largest family representing the order Cyclophyllidea. It includes many species of medical and veterinary importance, as ''Taenia solium'' (pork tapeworm), ''Taenia saginata'' (beef tapeworm), and ''Echinococcus granulosus''. The Taeniidae are parasites of mammals and many are infectious to humans. Taxonomy The family includes four genera: **''Echinococcus'' Rudolphi, 1801 **''Hydatigera'' Lamarck, 1816 **''Taenia (cestode), Taenia'' Linnaeus, 1758 **''Versteria'' Nakao, Lavikainen, Iwaki, Haukisalmi, Konyaev, Oku, Okamoto & Ito, 2013 Life cycle Taeniidae parasites are distinguished by their terrestrial lifecycles, which include a dormant stage called a metacestode. These develop in the intermediate host's tissue when eggs are consumed. The eggs hatch into an oncosphere, which passes through the intestinal wall and forms the metacestode. An example is either cysticercoid, cysticercus, or a hy ...
