Extract

Re-descriptions are given of the following species :—

1. Lyperosomum longicauda (Rudolphi, 1809) Looss, 1899.

2. Lutztrema monenteron (Price and Mclntosh, 1935) Travassos, 1941.

3. Dicrocoelioides petiolatum (Railliet, 1900) Dollfus, 1954.

4. Brachylaemus fuscatus (Rudolphi, 1819) var. nicolli (Witenberg 1925).
