  1. class cestoda

    Class Cestoda, commonly known as tapeworms, is a class of parasitic flatworms, in the phylum Platyhelminthes. These organisms live in the digestive tracts of vertebrates as adults and often in the bodies of various animals as juveniles. They have a unique structure characterized by a long, flat, ribbon-like body with a small head (scolex) and numerous body segments (proglottids). Most species lack a digestive system, absorbing nutrients directly from their host's body. Their life cycle typically involves intermediate hosts, which are usually not the same species as their primary host.
