Extract

Three new species of cestodes are described. They are: Joyeuxiella paucitestis sp.nov. from the Rusty Spotted Genet, Genetta rubiginosa; Diplopylidium paurodex sp.nov. from the Rusty Spotted Genet, Genetta rubiginosa; Taenia crocutae sp.nov. from the Spotted Hyaena, Crocuta crocuta.

Re-descriptions are given of Joyeuxiella fuhrmanni (Baer, 1924), Fuhrmann, 1935, and Taenia ingwei Ortlepp, 1938, with particular reference to differences between the original descriptions and those based upon the present material.
