Abstract

Abstract Pulluterina nestoris Smithers is recorded from a wild kea, Nestor notabilis Gould (Aves: Psittaciformes), in New Zealand for the first time. The hitherto unknown scolex is described, and confirms the position of P. nestoris in the Anoplocephalidae. Details of proglottid morphology are discussed, and an amended generic diagnosis is given.
