Abstract

A LIST of the gastro-intestinal nematodes of British cattle, published by Morgan and Soulsby1, included two species of Ostertagia (O. ostertagi and O. circumcincta) and three species of Trichostrongylus (T. axei, T. vitrinus and T. colubriformis). Observations at Weybridge indicate that an additional species of each of these two genera, namely, O. lyrata and T. longispicularis, should be added to this list.
