The present communication deals with new species of the genus Stilesia Railliet in 1893 i.e. Stilesia intestinalis sp.Nov. collected from Capra hircus (L.) from Shirur Anantpal Dist. Latur (M.S.) India. The present form comes closer to all the known valid species of this genus in general topography of organs but differs due to some characters i.e. Scolex rectangular, suckers four, large, muscular, arranged in two groups, neck long, mature proglottids 8 times broader than long, testes small, arranged in two groups, 4 in each groups, genital pore marginal, regularly alternate, vagina anterior to cirrus pouch, ovary compact and cylindrical.

Abstract


The present communication deals with new species of the genus Stilesia Railliet in 1893 i.e. Stilesia intestinalis sp.Nov. collected from Capra hircus (L.) from Shirur Anantpal Dist. Latur (M.S.) India. The present form comes closer to all the known valid species of this genus in general topography of organs but differs due to some characters i.e. Scolex rectangular, suckers four, large, muscular, arranged in two groups, neck long, mature proglottids 8 times broader than long, testes small, arranged in two groups, 4 in each groups, genital pore marginal, regularly alternate, vagina anterior to cirrus pouch, ovary compact and cylindrical.
