Abstract | ||||
In the present work, two trematode = gencra:Myorhynchus Durio and Manter, 1968 and Pod-ocotyloides Yamaguti, 1934 were breifly re-viewed. Myorhynchus pritchardae (Nahhas and Cable, 1964) n. comb., syn. Bucephalus sp. Nah-has and Cable, 1964 and Podocotyloides chloro-scombri Fischthal and Thomas, 1970 were rede-scribed from Labrus bergylata and Mullus surmuletus respectively from Libya. The two hosts represent new host record and new locality for their respective parasites. A comparison be-tween the original descriptions (single specimen) and the present description (twenty specimens) is given and discussed. | ||||
