170 COMPARATIVE PARASITOLOGY, <strong>67</strong>(2), JULY <strong>2000</strong> (deposited at the Institut Agronomique et Veterinaire Hassan II, Rabat, Morocco), was made by one of us (S.B.). The second collection, from a single specimen of T. hennanni from Catalonia, Spain, was made by C. Feliu, Barcelona, Spain, and deposited at the Barcelona Zoo, Spain. Nematodes were preserved in 70% ethanol before being cleared with lactophenol for study. Figures were made with the aid of a drawing tube. Nematodes were dehydrated by passage through progressive ethanol concentrations to absolute ethanol and critical-point-dried (M scope 500, Hitachi, Japan). The scanning electron microscope used was a Hitachi S 520, Hitachi, Japan at 20 kV. Measurements given are for the holotype male and the allotype female. Measurements in parentheses are the ranges of paratype males and females. All measurements are in micrometers. Results Thaparia thapari thapari (Dubinina, 1949) (Figs. 1-10) Redescription GENERAL: The material examined consisted of 6 males and 15 females. Body medium-sized, stout. Mouth triangular, with 3 transparent lips. Buccal cavity with denticles. Cephalic sense organs consisting of inner circle of 6 nerve endings, papillae not pedunculate (Figs. 2, 3, 6, 7), the outer circle not observed, and amphids present. Esophagus divided into 2 portions: anterior muscular part, and comparatively longer posterior glandular part terminating in valvular bulb; 17 chitinoid pieces surrounding anterior end of esophagus (Figs. 1, 3). Excretory pore postesophageal. MALE: Length 2,754-3,169; maximum thickness 191-229. In worm measuring 2,773, esophagus 388: corpus 180 and isthmus plus bulb 208. Nerve ring and excretory pore 161 and 889, respectively, from anterior end. Posterior extremity truncated. Tail <strong>67</strong> long. Spicule needle-shaped, 100 long. Gubernaculum Vshaped. Three pairs of caudal papillae: 2 circumcloacal (1 pair preanal and 1 pair postanal) and 1 pair at tail end. Preanal membrane, present with 6 lobes (Figs. 4, 5, 8, 9, 10), and caudal alae absent. FEMALE: Length 4,282-4,716; maximum thickness 356-378. In a worm measuring 4,600, esophagus 615: corpus 240 and isthmus plus bulb 375. Nerve ring, excretory pore, and vulva at 180, 1,282, and 2,264, respectively, from anterior end. Tail 270 long. Taxonomic summary HOST: Spur-thighed tortoise, Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758. SITE IN HOST: Cecum. TYPE LOCALITY/COLLECTION DATE: Settat, Morocco, 32°30'45"N, 7°45'30"W, 22 July 1999, by S.B. SPECIMENS DEPOSITED: Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France. Number 825 HE Remarks Thapar (1925) described the female of this species from Testudo graeca, as Oxyuris sp. Dubinina (1949) studied males, the structures of which made it possible to include the species in Tachygonetria Wedl, 1862. Fetter (1966) redescribed and transferred this species to the genus Thaparia and divided it in 2 subspecies: T. thapari thapari and T. thapari australis. The emended diagnosis characterizes T. thapari thapari with 17 chitinoid pieces, whereas Petter (1961, 1966) cited 6 chitinoid pieces. Cephalic sense organs consist of an inner circle of 6 nerve endings (papillae not pedunculate), 4 submedian and 2 lateral close to amphids; outer papillae were not observed. Description Copyright © 2011, The Helminthological Society of Washington Thaparia carlosfeliui sp. n. (Figs. 11-23) GENERAL: The material examined consisted of 20 males and 40 females. Nematoda, Oxyuroidea, Pharyngodonidae, Thaparia. Robust worms of small size. Mouth surrounded by 3 lips. Esophagus in 2 parts, with elongated isthmus. Amphids prominent. Differs from the diagnosis of the genus in the number of caudal papillae. MALE: (holotype and 3 paratypes): Mouth surrounded by 3 V-shaped cut lips (Figs. 13, 21). Six oral papillae, arranged in 3 pairs (Fig. 13). Buccal cavity without denticles. Esophagus lobes visible. No chitinoid pieces visible. Tail without alae. Structure of caudal region complex (Figs. 15, 16, 22, 23). One pair of preanal papillae, 1 pair of large postanal elongated papillae. Posterior lip of anus with central nipple. Surrounding ventral membrane present lateral and anterior to anus, and second preanal membrane situated posterior to first membrane. Anterior lip of anus with 2 lobes, extremity of spic-
