 Cestoda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biology, Cestoda is the class of parasitic flatworms, called cestodes or tapeworms, that live in the digestive tract of vertebrates as adults and often in the bodies of various animals as juveniles.
In a tapeworm infection, adult worms absorb food predigested by the host, so the worms have no need for a digestive tract or a mouth.
There are two subclasses in class Cestoda, the Cestodaria and the Eucestoda.

Subsequent studies have separated the Acoelomorpha from the remaining catenulid and rhabditophoran Platyhelminthes, with the acoelomorphs occupying a pivotal basal position among the Bilateria [11,12] and the Platyhelminthes (sensu stricto) as relatively derived members of the Lophotrochozoa [13].
With respect to the possession of a hook-bearing posterior end structure in larval stages of tapeworms (Cestoda), considered as being homologous to the posterior opisthaptor of monogenean groups, it has long been accepted from morphological systematists as a key character uniting Cestoda and Monogenea [34,35].
Under the parsimony assumption, in which the hypothesis with fewer inferences of character transformation is preferred, mapping of host adoption by each of the stem groups of the Neodermata onto the previously accepted phylogenetic relationships has suggested two different ways of interpretation in relation to their life cycle evolution [45].
