Abstract
Three spp., one un-identified, of 2 genera of Pentastomida are reported from African mammals, and 5 spp. of 3 genera are reported from African reptiles. Six spp., one unidentified, of 6 genera, and a new genus, MEGA-DREJPANOIDES, with 2 new spp., M. solomanensis (type) and M. varani, are reported from reptiles from the British Solomon Islands. Fifteen new host records are reported. Doubt is expressed regarding the validity of the numerous spp. of Raillietiella reported.Keywords
