Abstract
A new species of filaria, Brugia guyanensis is described from the lymphatic system of the coatimundi (Nasua nasua vittata) in the Rupununi District of British Guiana. This finding constitutes a new host, host family, and geographic locality for the genus Brugia. As compared with other Brugia species, B. guyanensis is relatively small, its left spicule long and hooked at the tip.
