Diplozoidae and Octomacridae are usually considered as sister families. Essentially this is because they are the only polyopisthocotyleans parasitising primary freshwater teleosts. Because of the lack of phylogenetically informative morphological characters to explore the pattern of colonisation of the primary continental freshwater teleosts and in order to understand the appearance of the "natural parabiosis" of Diplozoidae, a molecular phylogeny was inferred by comparing newly obtained partial 28S and 18S rDNA gene sequences of Eudiplozoon nipponicum and Diplozoon homoion with other already available sequences. The phylogenetic analysis seems to show that Diplozoidae and Octomacridae are not sister groups. Thus, the colonisation of primary freshwater teleosts by these two families could be independent.
