Extract

Whilst examining amphibian helminths collected from Pahang, Malaya, a hitherto undescribed species of Oswaldocruzia was found among them. In a previous paper (Yuen, 1962), I have recorded the only other Malayan species of Oswaldocruzia: namely O. hoepplii Hsu from Bufo melanostictus Boulenger, Rana macrodon Boulenger, and R. cancrivora Gravenhorst from various parts of Singapore.
