Taxonomy, evolution and life cycles
Abstract
Three lectures were given, the first on haplodiploidy in the Oxyurida (Nematoda), the second on rodent Oxyurida and the third on the life cycle of Leishmania (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae). The oral communications and posters were divided into five subsections, covering systematics at supraspecific, specific and subspecific levels, evolution, and life cycles of parasites with hosts in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. A wide range of topics was discussed, including recent developments in the fields of genetics and cellular and molecular biology, and computer-assisted numerical taxonomy.
