摘要
O. ramachandrini n. sp., a parasite of the subcutaneous tissues Of the feet of Phacochoerus aethiopicus in Cameroon, is described. The female has 3 to 5 giant coelomocytes which form swellings in the anterior part of the body. Together with O. dewittei Bain, Ramachandran, Petter et Mak, 1977, this species constitutes a small group of parasites of the Suidae, which are morphologically well characterized, and of which the African species seems to be the most primitive one (conservation of a female cuticle without transverse ridges).
