The coiius genitalis is characteristically shaped (Eig. 2c). Thin, filiform spicules of equal length (0.40-0.43 mm) are enveloped by a distinct sheath. Both spicules bifurcate not far (0.063 mm) from their proximal end, one branch being 0.027-0.029 mm longer than the other. No gubernaculum is observable. Female: The body is 2.40-3.72 mm long and 0.07-0.08 mm wide having an oesophagus 0.25-0.30 mm in length. The nerve ring occurs approximately halfway along the oesophagus, 0.125-0.142 mm from the cephalic end. The porus excretorius is situated 0.22 mm, and the deirids 0.20 mm, from the anterior end of the body. From the rounded caudal end of the body (Fig. lb) projects a spine 0.013C.013 mm in length. The anus is located 0.08-0.09 mm, and the vulva 0.26-0.31 mm from the caudal end.A cuticular lobe surrounds the vulva. Eggs, 0.065-0.078 x 0.031-0.040 mm, are in a morular stage at oviposition. >.". spalacis Kirsenblat, 1965, is new for the fauna of Hungary, and 5. leucodon is a new recorded host. 3 u m is a r y The author discusses the Nematode parasite, Heligmosomum spalacis Kirsenblat

,1965, found in the small intestine of five lesser mole rats (Spalax leucodon Nordm.) collected near Hajdubagos, county Hajdu-Bihar, Hungary. H. spalacis is new for the fauna of the region, and S. leucodon is a new host for this parasite species. MÉSZÁROS, F.: Heligmosomum spalacis Kirsenblat, 1965 (Nematoda. Heligmosomatidae) előfordulása a földikutyában (Spalax leucodon Nordm.) Magyarországon Szerző ismerteti a Hajdubagos környékén (Hajdú-Bihar megye) gyűjtött öt földikutya (Spalax leucodon Nordm.) vékonybeléből előkerült Heligmosomum spalacis Kirsenblat, 1965 fonálféreg fajt. A H. spalacis faunánkra nézve uj faj,a S.leucodon pedig uj gazdaállat.
