Six species of Digenea are reported: Acanthocolipidae: Acanthocolpus tenuis sp. n. Fellodistomatidae: Tergestia clonacantha sp. n. Cryptogonimidae: Paracryptogonimus hirastrictus sp. n.; P. saccatus sp. n.; P. sp., MITOTREMA gen. n. (type M. anthostomatum sp. n. The "Acanthocolpus liodorus Luhe, 1906" of Nagaty and Abdel Aal (1962) is considered a synonym of Pseudolepidapedon balistis Manter, 1940. Paracryptogonimoides Nagaty and Abdel Aal, 1962 and Mahrosa Nagaty and Abdel Aal, 1962 are considered nomina nuda. Another change is: Paracryptogonimus leilae (Nagaty, 1957) comb. n. (syn. Metadena leilae Nagaty, 1957).This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
