Extract

Two new species of lung nematodes from Near-East mammals are described: Crenosoma lophocara from Erinaceus roumanicus sacer and Stenuroides herpestis from Herpestes ichneumon, the latter species giving rise to establishment of a new genus of the subfamily Pseudaliinae. This species is the only known example of pseudaliin nematode parasitizing a terrestrial host.
