Abstract:
Several adult Nilocotyle (N.) praesphinctris Näsmark, 1937, were recovered from
hippopotami shot in the Kruger National Park. For the description of these the
division of Nilocotyle by Yamaguti 1958, into two subgenera: Nilocotyle (Näsmark,
1937) and Sellsitrema (Yamaguti, 1958), is retained.
