Extract

The present paper is a report on a collection of helminths collected from gazelles from Tanganyika Territory. It comprises one species of trematode, Paramphistomum microbothriwn; one species of a larval cestodc Taenia hydatigcna; eleven species of nematodes, Trichuris spiricollis; Haemonchus contortus; Trichostrongylus probolurus; Gazellofilaria tanganyikae; Cooperioides antidorca; Paracooperia serrata; P. daubneyi; Longistrongylus meyeri; Impalaia nudicollis; Gazellostrongylus lerouxi gen. et sp. nov. (Trichostrongylidae) and Protostrongylns gazellae sp. nov. The seven last mentioned species are all new records for the gazelle.
