Trematoda, commonly known as flukes, primarily move using their muscular bodies and cilia. They possess a layer of ciliated cells that help them glide through their aquatic environments. In addition, their muscular contractions allow them to navigate through tissues in their hosts. Some species may also utilize a form of creeping movement by contracting and expanding their body.
