  1. family cestidae

    Family Cestidae, also known as ribbon worms or tapeworms, is a family in the taxonomic class Cestoda, phylum Platyhelminthes. They are parasitic flatworms, characterized by their elongated, ribbon-like body. They typically inhabit the digestive tract of vertebrates, including humans, and absorb nutrients directly across their body surface. Members of this family lack a digestive system and head, and their body is composed of a chain of repetitive units known as proglottids. Each proglottid is essentially a reproductive unit, containing both male and female reproductive organs. However, most species of Cestidae reproduce primarily by cross-fertilization.
