Abstract

Vertebrates are the important components of the  ecosystem. They are very important from the  ecological and economical point of view. Man  uses many fishes, birds and mammals as  delicious and nutritious food. These fishes, birds  and mammals are known to harbour a number of  parasitic infections i.e. trematodes, cestodes and  nematodes which cause deterioration in their  health and increase the rate of mortality of hosts.  The flesh of fishes, birds and mammals are not  properly cooked, therefore, encysted stages are  entered inside the body of human and cause  dangerous diseases to human beings. The study  was undertaken on the status of diversity of  piscean, avian and mammalian tapeworms of  genus Senga, Gangesia, Proteocephalus, Cotugnia,  Davainea, Raillietina, Valipora, Mogheia, Moniezia,  Stilesia and Avitellina from Marathwada region  (M.S.) India. Tapeworms were collected and  studied from different freshwater fishes, birds  and mammals; and identified with morpho taxonomical keys and advanced numerical tools.
