Abstract

A number of helminths from a small bat from a cave in Northern Rhodesia were presented by Dr. P. L. leRoux to the author for study. The collection of consisted of about twenty specimens of one species of trematode, Prosthodendrium cordiforme; the rest were nematodes, namely, two males and three females of Molinostrongylus pseudornatus sp. nov., at least one species of filarial worm, one species of Capillaria and one or two species of trichostrongylid nematodes. Only the first two helminth species mentioned above were studied in detail. The others, for one reason or another, were inadequate for detailed study.
