Abstract
O. gutturosa and O. lienalis are redescribed and comparative morphological descriptions provided. Described from cattle in the USA is O. stilesi sp. nov. It localizes in the connective tissues around the stifle joint, and can be distinguished morphologically from O. gutterosa and O. lienalis. O. gutturosa and O. lienalis apparently have widespread distribution in the eastern USA; O. stilesi has been reported only from Minnesota.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
