Taxonomy

Currently there is only one species recognised in this genus.

Life cycle

This species infects the gastrointestinal tract of polychaete worms. It is not known if it has any other host.

The parasite infects the cells of the gut wall. The oocysts have thin membrane like walls. Each sporocyst gives rise to 8 sporozoites

Host records

Malacoceros fuliginosus. This worm of the family Spionidae was previously known as Scolelepis fuliginosa. This name is now recognised as a junior synonym.

TIMING ATTACKS, *and* you can check whether there's an image or not at some arbitrary URL because while CORS weirdness won't let your code read the *content* of an image you include with `<img>` unless the site it's from opts in, you can check the width/height and whether it loaded or not.
gollark: But there is more!
gollark: SameSite or whatever.

gollark: That's a problem because some TRIANGLE made it so that you could send POST/GET requests cross-origin *and cookies and stuff are sent with them by default*.
