Description of species 



CYCLOCOELUM LEIDYI nov. spec. 



[Figures 1, 2, 33] 

 Syn: Monostomum mutabile Leidy 1885, nee Zeder 1800 



This collection contains five specimens described by Leidy (1885) as 

 follows: "From the thoracic cavity of a Gray Snipe, Gallinago wilsoni, 

 Dr. Warren (of Westchester) obtained five Flukes, 18mm long, by 4mm 

 broad. These appear to be Monostomum mutabile." 



These specimens are readily recognized as belonging to the genus 

 Cyclocoelum Brandes (1892) but are distinctly different from Cyclocoelum 

 mutabile and represent a new species. The following description shows the 

 characteristic differences between the two species.
