Abstract:
Two new trichostrongyloids are described Neoheligmonella dossoi n. sp. and N. tranieri n. sp. concomitant parasites in the intestine of Uranomys ruddi (Rodentia-Muridae) from the Ivory Coast. N. dossoi differs from N. pseudospira and N. houini parasites of Arvicanthis abyssinicus in Ethiopia, by the length of the vestibule (longer than two thirds of the length of the infundibulum). N. tranieri is closely related to N. dossoi but can be differentiated by its longer uncoiled body and a characteristic synlophe.
