The specimens are stored in glass or plastic vials in 70% ethanol or as microscope slide preparations. All the material is available for consultation, but holotypes are not loaned. Unless otherwise stated, all type material is in good condition.
The catalogue is arranged taxonomically as classes, subclasses, orders, families, genera and species, under the original spelling and combinations. Classes and subclasses are arranged following phylogenetic order. Orders, families, genera and species are arranged alphabetically. The information on each entry is presented in the following format:
1. Original genus-species combination with author(s) and year of publication. Asterisk (*) denotes the type species of the genus.
2. Type host: updated scientific name, author(s) and year, with original scientific name in square brackets (when changed), followed by principal taxonomic group in parentheses.
3. Infestation or infection site in the host.
4. Type locality: country, province or state, department, specific locality and coordinates (if available).
5. Primary type status:
6. Remark sections are inserted when necessary and include additional information about host, locality or status of the species and types.
7. References include publications in which the species was described and those that mention type specimens in the
