The emergence of molecular systematics at the end of the twentieth century provided a new class of data with which to revisit hypotheses based on interpretations of morphology and life ADVANCES IN history. The result has been a mixture of corroboration, upheaval and considerable insight into the correspondence between genetic divergence and taxonomic circumscription.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Inventory and Monitoring Branch FY2015 NRPC Final Report Documenting freshwater snail and trematode parasite diversity in the Wheeler Refuge Complex: baseline inventories and implications for animal health. Lori Tolley-Jordan Prepared by: Lori Tolley-Jordan Project ID: Grant Agreement Award# F15AP00921 1 Report Date: April, 2017 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Inventory and Monitoring Branch FY2015 NRPC Final Report Title: Documenting freshwater snail and trematode parasite diversity in the Wheeler Refuge Complex: baseline inventories and implications for animal health. Principal Investigator: Lori Tolley-Jordan, Jacksonville State University, Jacksonville, AL. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) Complex includes: Wheeler, Sauta Cave, Fern Cave, Mountain Longleaf, Cahaba, and Watercress Darter Refuges that provide freshwater habitat for many rare, endangered, endemic, or migratory species of animals. To date, no systematic, baseline surveys of freshwater snails have been conducted in these refuges. Documenting the diversity of freshwater snails in this complex is important as many snails are the primary intermediate hosts of flatworm parasites (Trematoda: Digenea), whose infection in subsequent aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates may lead to their impaired health. In Fall 2015 and Summer 2016, snails were collected from a variety of aquatic habitats at all Refuges, except at Mountain Longleaf and Cahaba Refuges. All collected snails were transported live to the lab where they were identified to species and dissected to determine parasite presence. Trematode parasites infecting snails in the refuges were identified to the lowest taxonomic level by sequencing the DNA barcoding gene, 18s rDNA. Gene sequences from Refuge parasites were matched with published sequences of identified trematodes accessioned in the NCBI GenBank database. -

Masters of Science, 2001. David Zamparo, Graduate Deputment of Zoology. University of Toronto. A phylogenetic analysis of the Neodermata and their closest relatives (the Rhabdocoela) was undertaken in order to provide a robust estimate of phylogeny. This phylogenetic analysis incorporates new character information and addresses a number of methodological issues raised by recent phylogenetic systematic analyses of the Platyhelminthes. -
Small Subunit Rdna and the Platyhelminthes: Signal, Noise, Conflict and Compromise
Chapter 25 In: Interrelationships of the Platyhelminthes (eds. D.T.J. Littlewood & R.A. Bray) ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 25 SMALL SUBUNIT RDNA AND THE PLATYHELMINTHES: SIGNAL, NOISE, CONFLICT AND COMPROMISE D. Timothy J. Littlewood and Peter D. Olson The strategies of gene sequencing and gene characterisation in phylogenetic studies are frequently determined by a balance between cost and benefit, where benefit is measured in terms of the amount of phylogenetic signal resolved for a given problem at a specific taxonomic level. Generally, cost is far easier to predict than benefit. Building upon existing databases is a cost-effective means by which molecular data may rapidly contribute to addressing systematic problems. As technology advances and gene sequencing becomes more affordable and accessible to many researchers, it may be surprising that certain genes and gene products remain favoured targets for systematic and phylogenetic studies. In particular, ribosomal DNA (rDNA), and the various RNA products transcribed from it continue to find utility in wide ranging groups of organisms. The small (SSU) and large subunit (LSU) rDNA fragments especially lend themselves to study as they provide an attractive mix of constant sites that enable multiple alignments between homologues, and variable sites that provide phylogenetic signal (Hillis and Dixon 1991; Dixon and Hillis 1993). Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is also the commonest nucleic acid in any cell and thus was the prime target for sequencing in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes during the early history of SSU nucleotide based molecular systematics (Olsen and Woese 1993). In particular, the SSU gene (rDNA) and gene product (SSU rRNA1) have become such established sources of taxonomic and systematic markers among some taxa that databanks dedicated to the topic have been developed and maintained with international and governmental funding (e.g. -

A STUDY on the PARASITE DIVERSITY and COMMUNITY ECOLOGY of THREE SPECIES of TEXAS FRESHWATER TURTLES a Thesis by WESLEY JAMES NE
A STUDY ON THE PARASITE DIVERSITY AND COMMUNITY ECOLOGY OF THREE SPECIES OF TEXAS FRESHWATER TURTLES A Thesis by WESLEY JAMES NEELY Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Norman O. Dronen Committee Members, Toby J. Hibbitts Thomas M. Craig Head of Department, David J. Caldwell August 2018 Major Subject: Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences Copyright 2018 Wesley James Neely ABSTRACT In this study, the metazoan parasites of three species of freshwater turtles (the spiny softshell, Apalone spinifera, the common snapping turtle, Chelydra serpentina, and the red-eared slider, Trachemys scripta elegans) were surveyed at 16 sites across the state of Texas. A total of 42 species of metazoan parasites were recovered from 15 A. spinifera, nine C. serpentina, and 55 T. s. elegans, representing 16 new host-parasite associations and 17 new locality records. The synonymy of Acanthostomum nuevoleonensis by Brooks (1980) is refuted and the species is redescribed. Two new species of monogenean worms in the genus Neopolystoma are reported, one from C. serpentina and A. spinifera and another from T. s. elegans. Through non-metric multidimensional scaling and analysis of similarities, A. spinifera was found to contain a significantly distinct parasite community from C. serpentina and T. s. elegans. A range of water parameters (ammonia, carbon dioxide, chloride, dissolved oxygen, hardness, nitrite, nitrate, pH, salinity, temperature, and turbidity) were recorded on each sampling trip and compared to parasite abundance and diversity. Ammonia levels were positively correlated with abundance of acanthocephalans.
