TL;DR: The most comprehensive spatially explicit data set available for parasites, projected range shifts in a changing climate, and estimated extinction rates for eight major parasite clades is compiled, finding that ectoparasites (especially ticks) fare disproportionately worse than endopar asites.

TL;DR: The protection of parasitic biodiversity requires a paradigm shift in the perception and valuation of their role as consumer species, similar to that of apex predators in the mid‐20th century, and an extension of population viability analysis for host–parasite assemblages to assess extinction risk is proposed.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the 3 species of Echeneibothrium hosted by the yellownose skate are not each other's closest relatives, suggesting multiple colonization events of D. chilensis have occurred.

TL;DR: Two of the new genera erected for three clades of tapeworms originally discovered using molecular sequence data provide appropriate generic homes for ten species of phyllobothriideans from catsharks and skates with uncertain generic affinities and thus resolve longstanding taxonomic issues.
