Abstract
Nine previously described species of digenetic trematodes of fishes were part of a collection from Egypt. Six of the nine were originally described or redescribed by Looss between 1896-1902: Acanthostomum spiniceps (Looss, 1896) Looss, 1899; A. absconditum (Looss, 1901) Poche, 1926 (syn. A. bagri Thomas, 1958); Haplosplanchnus pachysomus (Eysenhardt, 1829) Looss, 1902; Saccocoelium obesum Looss, 1902 (syn. S. tensum Looss, 1902); Astiotrema impletum (Looss, 1899) Looss, 1900; and Haplorchoides cahirinus (Looss, 1896) Chen, 1949. Additionally reported are Nicolla gallica (Dollfus, 1941) Dollfus, 1959; Nemato-bothrium labeonis McClelland, 1955; and Depropristis inflata (Molin, 1859) Odhner, 1902. Variations from and amplifications of the prior descriptions of these forms are presented.
