Extract

Of a total of sixteen Jackdaws examined, four were found to be infected with Trematodes. These yielded a total of five species, two of which are new to the British fauna, namely Urotocus thalonetensis and Tamerlania zarudnyi. The other parasites found were Platynosomum petiolaium, Lyperosomum longicauda and Prosthogonimus ovatus. With the exception of P. ovatus all the species are described in the text.
