Extract

Two new species of Paramphtstomum from cattle are described, namely, P. hiberniae n.sp. and P. scotiae n.sp., first collected from Irish and Scottish cattle respectively.

A brief account of gametogenesis and early cleavage division is given.

The chromosome number for P. scotiae is n=8, 2n=16, for P. hiberniae no definite number is given but it is believed to be n = 8 (6–8), 2n=16 (12–16). Notes are made on some specimens received from the Netherlands and France.

P. hiberniae and P. scotiae are compared with P. cervi and P. leydeni.
