This document is organized into 22 peer-reviewed chapters. Each of the chapters focuseson an individual cestode group, begins with the status of knowledge of the group prior tothe inception of the PBI project, and ends with an assessment of the current understandingof the group. In each case, diversity, classification, morphology, phylogenetic relationships,host associations, and geographic distribution are addressed. In all but one case, each chapterincludes a list of valid taxa. Synonyms have not generally been listed; this was determinedto be beyond the scope of the project given the immensity of such lists for some groups.With over 3,000 valid species, the generation of a list of species for the Cyclophyllidea wasalso determined to be beyond the scope of this project.
