South African helminths. Part VII. Miscellaneous helminths, chiefly cestodes
In the foregoing the writer discusses five species of Cestodes and one species of Nematode; of the cestodes three species are considered as new and the species from the Hoepoe is assigned to a new genus Biuterinoides closely related to the genus Biuterina Fuhrmann, 1902. The new species are Catenotaenia capensis from the Striped Mouse, Dilepis megacirrosa from the Golden Mole, Biuterinoides upupai from the Hoepoe and Ascaris suricattae from the Surricat. Another species of cestode from the Golden Mole is identified as Dilepis sphaerocephala (Rud. 1819) and its morphology is described. Materials from the Striped Mouse and the Gerbil are referred to Raillietina (Raill.) trapezoides (Janicki, 1904).
