Abstract
Neodiplostomum (Fibricola) singhi n. sp. is described from the intestine of a deer,Antilope cervicapra, shot in Tamia Ghat of Chhindwara, M.P. The subgenus is reviewed in detail. The author proposes synonymy ofNeogogatea Chandler and Rausch (1947) withGogatea Lutz (1935) as now the host specificity fails to be a criterion in taxonomic consideration.
