Abstract
Morphological studies of type-species of the genera Peltidocotyle Diesing, 1850 and Othinoscolex Woodland, 1933 showed that these genera were synonyms. We thus redescribed the type and fresh material of Peltidocotyle rugosa Diesing, 1850 and P. (= Othinoscolex) lenha (Woodland, 1933) which appeared to constitute two distinct species. They differed in a number of morphological features: the number and layers of testes, the diameter of the metascolex, and the field occupied by the vitelline follicles. Phylogenetic analyses based on DNA sequences of 16S rRNA, 5.8S-ITS2 and 28S rRNA supported these results. Peltidocotyle lenha and Woodlandiella myzofer (Woodland, 1933) were considered conspecific after thorough morphological examination. Concerning host-parasite relationships, P. lenha was reported from two host species, which is unusual for South American Proteocephalidea which generally display an oioxenous-type specificity.
