Extract

Strongylus (Dicerocola) tremletti sp.nov. is described from the black rhinoceros, Diceros bicornis L. from Kenya.

The affinities of S. (D.) tremletti sp.nov. with the other species of the genus Strongylus Müller, 1780 are discussed and the subgenus Dicerocola subgen.nov. is erected to contain it.

The species of Strongylus in Kenya are noted and original drawings of S. (D.) asini Boulenger, 1920 are included.
