摘要：

Five specimens of Oochoristica ubelakeri n. sp. were recovered from the small intestine of 1 of 5 (20%) Agama atra knobeli from Namibia. Oochoristica ubelakeri n. sp. is most similar to O. theileri, originally described from the spiny agamid lizard, Agama hispida, in South Africa, but differs by having a much less muscular genital atrium, a lobed ovary, and an oval vitellarium. The new species may be differentiated readily from the two other species of Oochoristica from sub-Saharan African reptiles in that its testes occur in two clusters rather than one. In addition, O. ubelakeri n. sp. was found in 1 of 10 (10%) sand geckos, Chondrodactylus at angulifer, also from Namibia.
