Cestoides, mais comumente chamados de tênias, são vermes simétricos que parasitam o trato intestinal dos vertebrados. As tênias consistem em uma cabeça (escólex), um pescoço e uma região germinativa que consiste em uma cadeia de segmentos individuais separados que têm um conjunto completo de órgãos reprodutivos em maturação progressiva. O escólex se fixa à mucosa intestinal do hospedeiro e as tênias crescem quando os segmentos brotam do escólex. Os segmentos aumentam, desenvolvendo um grande número de ovos que são posteriormente eliminados nas fezes. | |||
