Abstract
Lyperosomum megacotylosum sp. nov. is described from the small intestine of Apteryx qustralis mantelli in New Zealand. It is distinguished from other species of Lyperosomum by its elongate pre-acetabular region, large, cup-shaped acetabulum, and the position of the intestinal bifurcation and genital pore.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
